To give you a bit of a background, I've been a photographer since 1999, taking photos in the Army of folks running around in the woods. Now I take pictures of folks running around on a dance floor, or crawling across my studio floor in some cases. I'm a wedding photographer, family photographer, small business photographer and an anything photographer. I love to travel. I've shot in England, Iraq,

Qatar, Kuwait, Korea and Italy. I used to be a mountain climber. I've shot weddings all over the country. From San Francisco to Nashville, Miami to Maine. Depending on the location (i.e. tropical or a great party city), I sometimes waive my travel fee. So if you're having a wedding in the Caribbean, shoot me an e-mail! Babies and children are a specialty. I worked as a sports camp counselor for years with Thundercat Sports, so I'm great with kids of all ages. It's never hard to generate a smile. Nothing is better than seeing all the images we took together light up my computer screen. I sometimes edit all night, so if you you get an email from me at 4 a.m., it's just me being crazy. It also means you have some great images on the way. TL;DR I love to travel, I like babies and I'm an awesome photographer.

Education:
I trained as a photojournalist at the Defense Information School at Fort Meade, MD. I then went on to get a degree in Communications and Professional Writing at Fitchburg State University. I got my real-world education in photography shooting thousands of photos for Gatehouse Media, working in every environment imaginable to capture great images.

Working with Orlando:
I'm a laid back, easy going person who can roll with the punches. It's your wedding and you have enough issues to deal with. I make sure your photographer isn't one of them. With my background, I'm comfortable shooting anything quickly, so the pace of a wedding or event never stresses me out. I do my best to be as unobtrusive as possible, but if I need to speak up to get a shot you want or need then I don't hesitate. In the end, you'll barely notice I was there, but you'll have a ton of excellent photos to prove I was.

Always good when the model asks if he should bring his axes. A great shoot last week in Oakland with Anthony.

Still not sure if this was a wedding or a dance party!

When I sat down with Gunter and Erica to make their wedding album, so many pages were dedicated to the party at the reception, that I almost feel like the shots of them as a couple were overshadowed. Whether it was Erica’s troop of dancers or Gunters constant n...

It always makes my day when I can snap a shot like this.

A great day in Harvard Square

Spending an afternoon at Harvard Square in Cambridge, Mass. is a good time on it’s own, but having the opportunity to photograph Nick and Arielle’s engagement photos was an extra treat. First stop was the Harvard Book Store, where the staff allowed us to slip…

Digging out with another storm on the way. How I miss shooting for newspapers. In this age of spawling suburbs, snow is one of the few times almost everyone is out. They are shoveling, talking with their neighbors, playing with the kids, etc. And, folks are generally in a good mood at the start of the season.
