Profile
I have been taking pictures since I was 8 years old, living in Sacramento, California. My sisters and I have always loved photography. My wife, Lynda and I have a small photography business out of South Dakota, USA. Our primary emphasis is scenic, nature, wildlife and landscape photography. Our business covers the entire gamut of photography, including the above as well as portrait, family and occasional wedding photography.
In addition to photography, I have been a story teller since I was a little kid in Kindergarten. I can spin a yarn with the best of them. There is a special joy of letting my pen drift along the page of my journal and leave behind the visions of my mind’s camera that races along that razor thin edge where reality is left behind and vision takes over. I try to paint pictures with my words and to tell stories with pictures. I have completed two mystery novels that I feel are worth publishing and am currently seeking an agent or publisher.
The camera I am currently using is an Olympus Evolt 510 (E-510). I use a 14-42mm zoom Zuiko Lens, a 40-150mm zoom Zuiko lens and a 300mm Zuiko lens.
