Photographer

Appreciate light, dust, sweat, blood, getting dirty, and just a little bit of wind.

Collaborate with any and all project members tp produce photo shoots based on creative direction and client specific needs. Everything from talent and crew scheduling to location scouting, permitting, and travel arrangements to shoot day execution of planned shots while staying open to spontaneity.
Maintain organized digital asset database for timely and efficient delivery of final imagery along with easy retrieval at a later date.
Work hard, get dirty!



Before photography there was: 
bussing tables and washing dishes, stocking shelves, making sandwiches and screwing up the cash register, splitting firewood, tearing off roofs and installing new ones with putrid hot tar in the heat of summer, graveyard shift processing black&white film by hand and machine (more putrid fumes), and "teaching" conversational English in Osaka, Japan.
After that: schlepping gear, catching flights, setting up lights, and lovin it as a photo assistant in New York City with a variety-pack of famous and less than famous photographers, their highly skilled crews showing me the way.
