I have been passionate about photography for more than 45 years while managing to keep the flame alive by shifting through genres on a regular basis. My current work focuses on expressions of beauty and identity in the context of a world that is always watching and judging. I eschew social media, preferring to print and grant my subjects broader use of the images we collaborate on. It has only been recently that I began entering competitions and was grateful to receive honorable mentions for my first three entries in 2025.
