well...SORT OF

It has to fit the web page space, so I have to keep it short. My passions are video, photography, physical fitness, and Haiti.

I've been to Haiti maybe nine times and used to go there annually to film a story to help raise funds for a not-for-profit. Unfortunately, the erosion of the situation in port has made it too dangerous to visit in recent years.

But my trips have taught me many lessons including not taking clean water out of my faucet for granted. You forget that where we live is not like the rest of the world.

Volunteering for NEW LIFE FOR HAITI, I have worked with so many dedicated and selfless people who have a passion for helping this region, which is mostly forgotten unless a major natural disaster occurs.

Between the earthquakes and hurricanes, this culture struggles relentlessly to survive on a daily basis.

If you want to change your life for the better, go visit a place like Haiti. You won't pour a glass of water out of your faucet and take it for granted.

EXPERIENCE

I have 26 years of photography and 10 years in the video/film production business. Almost all of my projects are produced for marketing and 50% of them are in the culinary business. Food is an amazing subject because it takes in all of the senses. And just because it sits on a table and waits to be photographed or video recorded doesn't mean shooting it is not stressful. The perfect timing is short lived to capture the stellar peak of freshness.

One advantage to a long career in this business is the experience gained from different subject matter. From industrial to lifestyle, I’ve been lucky enough to shoot for many different clients in all areas.
