I’ve had a passion for photography most all of my life. But my actual experience started with a Canon AE-1, printing my own B&W work while studying at the University of Southern California. I took some photo classes there at the USC Cinema School and School of Fine Arts and won high honors for my work. I learned many styles pf photography and consequently was hooked. Had much classic training in both shooting and printing.
That passion has continued into the Digital Age, trading up my cameras sequentially to a 2MP Sony, then a 5P Sony, then an 8MP Olympus, and finally to my 10MP Nikon D80 with one lens that I use currently. Hoping that my next camera will be the D700 with many more lenses. I am now shooting for fun (hobby) on a consistent basis, and am currently dabbling in portrait photography.
I am a full-time graphic designer with my own studio in Herriman, Utah

It felt GREAT to clean out a bit! I may have to weed it out some more. I am trying to keep only my best stuff in my portfolio, and that helps to keep it manageable.
It was a fun week! Thank you again for supporting me and my artwork. You guys are GREAT!
Thank you everyone for supporting me and my artwork. It has been such a valuable experience mingling, socializing and just plain hang out with you guys!
It has been quite an eventful week. I haven’t felt this inspired in quite a while, and it feels GREAT!
