I have been documenting everyday life for over twenty years. Recently, I've decided to pursue photography more formally.

My home page mentions natural lighting, conditions and expressions. I prefer documenting natural conditions, without artificial posing. People notice a false smile immediately and if it takes a good joke or funny story to get the subject smiling, I'll do it. Honesty from the subject matter matters, so if the client is in a serious or reflective mood, I don't force the smile.

Natural settings are just that, natural. Be it your living room for family photos, your business for promotional or editorial photos, the new garden addition you just completed, the celebratory dinner with your child who just graduated with honors (or just graduated period), or getting your first tattoo. Think of an edgier version of Life Magazine, that is the "look" I seek to achieve, a documentary look that captures the world how it is.
