At 7 years old, I helped my dad in the darkroom developing prints and slides.  When I was in my late teens I bought my first manual Pentax K1000 camera.  Soon after, I was hired as a photographer to capture teams of youth and adults who traveled throughout the United States to rebuild homes for the needy.
        
Several years ago, I made the switch to digital photography and I haven't looked back.  I enjoy photographing people, events, and places throughout Southern California.  My background as a software engineer has helped me harness technology and combine that with the art of shooting.  From the initial instant of capturing a moment; to the process of using photoshop and other digital editing software to enhance that image; and finally sharing that image digitally or creating a unique website, I embrace the process from beginning to end.

Please feel free to contact me if you have questions.  I'm always interested in connecting with people regarding new projects.
