I came into this world May 1, 1951 in Minneapolis Minnesota. I first started taking pictures with my “Brownie Hawkeye” box camera in the fifth grade and fell in love with photography. Although photography is not my primary profession, it is my primary passion (next to my beautiful wife, son, daughter and two grandsons.) I love to capture the special moments in people’s lives -- weddings, birthdays, special events, baby’s first steps, and family portraits. I completed studies with the “New York Institute of Photography”. and have attended many training sessions at "Texas School of Photography" My current project is to complete my CCP certification.

I live in a sub in a suburb of Dallas Texas with my wife Deborah and our dog Maddie. I have two grown children and two grandsons which keep me pretty busy taking soccer and basketball pictures!

The equipment I use primarily is a Canon 5D MarkII , and primarily use a Canon 24-105MM Lens plus a variety of other lenses. ( I love my 70-200MM zoom for sports and portraits)
