Your Bio

I am a native of New Orleans, and have been photographing people and things for over 20 years. My background is traditional B&W silver gelatin prints, but my passion is experimenting with different media, and processes, which I am finally able to do.

When i was still in New Orleans I did much freelance work for Offbeat, and other local publications, in addition to being a photographer and rescue diver for the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Dept.

I currently reside all over the east coast of both Canada and the United States, and am a full time aerial photographer, working in large format B&W, color positives, and infrared...all other photographs these days are just for fun. Many of the older images featured in the galleries are from my negative scanning project. Between that, and the various renovation projects I am engaged in my time is rather full.

I am almost always looking for fun things and people to be the source of my inspiration...currently it happens to be intricate series of gear mechanisms.

New Orleans March 2, 2006 : this is my hometown, I always thought I'd always have that home to go back to, but Katrina made me realize how foolish a thought that was. I went home to visit in late February of 2006, these photos are from that trip...I can't honestly say I've really looked at them or edited them, it's too painful, yet somehow when i was behind the camera it was like i was someone else, i wasn't seeing 'home', I was documenting...but going back to look at them, a completely different story.

Bathroom renovations : This was a side project i started when the loft started to overwhelm me and burn me out, besides I needed a sink in the bathroom, preferably one my knees didn't bump up against when i was sitting on the loo...oh and that hideous tile had to go.

Lofty renovations : I bought this house in 2003, never intending to stay, yet here I am 3 years later wrapped up in a never ending project of renovations...why?? well because I need constant distractions, and my job as an aerial photographer isn't enough to distract me all of my waking hours...and when i am home and i can't sleep I can always work on one of my many projects.
