A moment lasts lifetimes through photography, captured in an instant stopping time forever.
Like many photographers, I began capturing images at an early age. It all started after my father gave me my first SLR film camera, a Canon AE-1, and put me in charge of the photos on our family’s trip to Martha’s Vineyard. I quickly fell in love with photography and it’s fascinating way of artistic expression.
When digital SLR cameras became available I was thrilled with this new technology for many reasons, but mainly because it put no limits on my creative freedom. It allows me to take complete control of the “darkroom process” in a simpler, more direct way letting me create the vision as I had seen it.
Today, I use the latest professional high resolution digital equipment to produce the finest quality images possible. I have a passion for creating unique and beautiful images that I hope you will enjoy.

DSLR Video
The convergence of stills and video continues. An increasing number of DSLRs now have video capability. The have been using the Canon 5DMKII, introduced in 2008. Video capable DSLRs like the Canon 5D MKII have been rapidly embraced by professional and indie film makers. The magic that video DSLRs offer is their large sensors (at last when compared to video cameras). No, not for the purposes of increased resolution. 1080 and 720 are what they are, and a larger sensor doesn’t provide any higher resolution. Rather, because these larger sensors allow for narrower depth of field. Of course it’s not the sensor size so much as it is that for a given aperture and focal length one gets narrower DOF with a larger sensor as a consequence of their using longer focal length lenses for the same image magnification. This is the holy grail for many film makers: the narrow DOF that allows the videographer to isolate a subject and therefore give the scene a more “filmic” look. Video capability in DSLRs represents nothing short of a revolution.
