I got my start back in the late 70’s doing product photography for items sold through catalogs. In those days, film was the only way and there wasn’t much room for creativity.

So here we are many years later with tools like digital cameras, photo editing software, fancy lights and new techniques being discovered daily. How could I not get back into the craft…

My gallery here is a sample collection of some of the directions I’ve explored so far. I tend to find the more colorful, over-the-top subjects exciting and fun to photograph as they lend themselves to more creative possibilities.

I’m open to new challenges as it’s a great way to advance my skills, and at the same time provide those “one of a kind” top quality images not obtainable without the proper gear.

If you have an idea or concept that you’d like to explore, contact me!
I’d be happy to work with you.

Currently, I work out of my home in Rockford, Illinois - only a couple hour’s drive from Chicago, Madison and Milwaukee.
