Thank YOU for visiting my page to find out about me - the person I am and what I love to do behind the camera. My eyes and mind has had a very life-long love affair for photography that has willingly controlled me for many decades. I've worked in many darkrooms using film, and now am using digital to record these many lovely things I see each day. Would you care to join me on my photo journey?
Originally from San Francisco, California, I now live in western New York (WNY), and spend time snapping with my wife Sheila in fabulous locations between Rota (Cádiz) in the southwest corner of Spain (the best Spain corner), and my hometown SF. I am an artistic photographer of years, years and more years behind film and digital cameras with experience in these themes and more: glamour, family, children, portraiture, boudoir and artnudes, events and more. I love capturing landscapes, windows, sunsets, trees and leaves. I am a sunset lover, a landscape capturer, and a very tired cloud and comet chaser, BUT still very passionate about capturing dreams and reality... will you allow me to put your family and personal moments on virtual film?
In December 2014 My camera was stolen while I was shooting on the wet rainy streets of San Francisco, on the edge of North Beach and Chinatown. While the gear was never recovered, I had to revise my planning on returning to Spain that same month, and after returning from Spain months later, finally... finally managed to make the expensive steps in replacing that which was stolen, including a small tripod I had planned to take and leave in Spain. IF YOU buy used photographic equipment, please check online at the very many online "report-a-theft" sites to SEE if your future used photo gear was reported stolen. I am also at Lenstag.com where my stolen gear had been recorded (now removed) and the new replacements are registered. Be careful on the streets everywhere; photographers have always been and continue to be targets in crime, and much more, and not just thefts.
I have fortunate enough to have had my imagery exhibited in Spain, Sweden and the United States, and published in magazines and newspapers. I am always looking for more places to exhibit and share my international imagery - do you have a wall that needs to be decorated with the colors of Life and the World?
Above all, I love recording little details…. those things you might have missed due to a meeting that kept you from looking up at the birds, sky, clouds, or seeing the full moon. Business or home life may keep you inside a building, while the everyday Life has moved on, away from your sight…. there are so many things WE miss in a day and sometimes within a lifetime, that could have brighten our lives somehow.
This is what I hope to share with you, and hope you enjoy what you see!
Wait, Wait! there's still more! Did I mention how much I love Black and White? aaaaaand did I mention I can create imagery for those with a model portfolio? ;) Also, I speak English and my version of Español Andaluz
