About Me

Having picked up my first camera in 1998, a Sony Digital Mavica MVC-FD5,

(yeah, the one with floppy discs), I'm proud to be considered one of the early digital adopters in concert photography.  Back then, professional photographers were anti-digital photography and it was nearly blasphemous to call yourself a photographer if you were shooting digital.  For me, digital was the only way I could afford to learn to shoot because the cost of film and processing were far too expensive for a 14-year-old. I was lucky enough to ride the waves of change and ultimately witness digital photography gain legitimacy.

These days, I do about 1/10th of the photography that I'd like to. Most of my photography has been performance-related as I work to rehone my skills as a concert photographer. I'm lucky enough to be one of the "house photogs" at the renowned Boulder Theater and Fox Theatre in Boulder, CO. 

This site is just a small place that I want to share some of my latest work.

Thank you for visiting!

These costs include site fees (notice how I'm on a free/branded Wix site...yeah I'd like to switch over to a premium account to lose the branding), fuel, equipment expenses (maintenance, replacement of gear), etc. Most of my photography is done out of passion or to document people, places, or events.
