I am a photographer and musician from Newport, Rhode Island. I began photographing and printing pictures in my father’s darkroom when I was 7.
I love photographing a wide range of subjects, primarily in black and white, but with a focus on street scenes, architecture, industrial landscapes, and abstract extractions.
For most of my years, I photographed in film but recently converted to digital in 2010. I am a member of the Island Photography Group, which consists of members from communities on or surrounding Aquidneck Island.
A professional career in photography is a culmination of a lifelong journey. On a personal note, I am currently working on a collection of night scenes from the Broadway area in Newport. I am also a guitarist who enjoys writing and performing in my studio as well as with a band that, as of now, has not established a name!
Creating photos, which is a lot like improvising in music, is as much fun as the presentation, which is akin to the audio producer and engineer that brings the soundscape to the real world. As a photographer, I enjoy being the performer and the engineer.
Thanks for viewing.
