I have loved photography as long as I can remember.

 

Photography has held a fascination with me since I was a child.  I can remember when I was ten years old making a pinhole camera from an old shoe box, wax paper from mom’s kitchen and duct tape. When it wasn’t bright enough for me, I took a lens from an old magnifying glass, cut up the box and taped it all back together.

 

In college I took every photography class they had to offer.  I loved learning on an old manual camera (a commercially available digital camera was not even thought possible for years) and developing the film and prints from the chemicals I mixed myself.  There were more failures than successes in those days, but that didn’t matter to me.  I was creating something from nothing with my own hands and my own mind.

 

Now it’s my passion to create images to be cherished a lifetime.  To enjoy the looks on my clients faces as they see their memories captured, to be able to revisit that moment in time over and over again.

 

Recently I had an acquaintance of a client come up to me to ask about some family portraits.  She said, “Hey, are you (client)’s photo guy?”  I smiled and said yes, thinking to myself of a line from a popular sitcom, “Yeah, she has a guy for that.”  Yes, photo guy, that is what I am.  Let me be your “Photo Guy”.
