I began my photography career as most people do...the highschool yearbook. Upon graduation I went to the Naval Photography School in Pensacola Fla. After getting a qualification in basic photography and then later attending their Portrait School, I was assigned to a military operation. My experiences included USO photography for Bob Hope, Brooke Shields, Kathy Lee Crosby and Wayne Newton. I have also had the opportunity for travel assignments to places such as Beruit, Israel, Africa, Australia, Brazil, Italy, Spain and England. Upon exiting the Navy in 1984, I opened up a Tanning Salon and Health Club and began photographing weddings, all as a vehicle to fund my way through college. I have only been into the digital age for the past two years. One of my dreams that I've maintained since the early days of my career, is to one day do it on a professional level.
