Capturing your moments...that is my passion. I have always enjoyed photographs. Even as a child I loved to look at the old family photos. I would just stare at them...What were these people doing? What were they thinking? What on earth is that person laughing at? My Mother would always fill in the details, like it just happened yesterday. My Father was an amatuer photographer, and that's where it all started. With his equipment I soon started in school. I had spent many hours in a darkroom trying to perfect my style, the way I see the world. You see, I have always been an art kid, painting ,drawing, sculpting... anything I could get my hands on, get dirty with and express myself, I did it. That's the way I will approach your photographs. I want to capture your moments and expressions. Not just a static pose with Mom and Dad. Let's get the memories; those first steps, the first kiss... I want your family and friends to look at your photographs years from now and ask the question " What on earth was this person laughing at?" and you can smile and tell them exactly what happened like it just happened yesterday.

Under way...... Well here it is in all its glory. My new blog. Here I will attempt to dazzle you with my Photon Collecting prowess.

But first a little background - I have been taking pictures since high school and have mainly worked in a darkroom until the birth of my first son Aidan. My wife brought home a little digital camera and I was appalled at the idea. Kinda like the guys who just won't give up vinyl. Well, time ticked along and I haven't stepped foot in a real darkroom in 7 years. :)

The last three years, my with my wife's encouragement, I am making the move to full time Photography. Soooooo... where does that leave us?
We shall see my friends, we shall see.

A few things from a downtown Phoenix Engagement/ Wedding Shoot. A Fellow Photog friend, the talented Kara Layne, set this event up with some other talented Photographers. It was a very windy day, but we got alot of good stuff regardless....
