Well, here is a little bit about myself. I am a self-taught photographer born in Tampa, Florida where I spent my early childhood.
I moved to Maryland in my teens and have lived here ever since. Being a former Floridian truly made an impact on my photography as I prefer to photograph tropical locations. I love the peaceful happy feeling people get when they are on vacation and I love bright and saturated colors. It brings a smile to my face and also to the people around me...but I also love the other side of black and white as well.
From photographing a crack in a concrete floor, a run-down crumbing building or a beautiful beach scene I find interest in everything. I always say "There is beauty in everything if you take the time to look". I am fascinated by people and various cultures and like to go off the beaten path to find the perfect shot. "People are quite interesting and everyone has a story".
"Life may not be the party we hoped for
but while we're here we should dance"
I want to capture that dance.
I am a member of "Arts by the Bay" Gallery in Havre de Grace, Maryland, where my photographs are currently on exhibit. I am also the Marketing and Public Relations Chair for the gallery.
I have appeared on Baltimore's WBAL-TV in promotion of Arts by the Bay Gallery also showcasing my photograph "Pink Bling" that was taken at The Grand Guesthouse in Key West, Florida along with my photograph "Little Red Rooster" also taken in Key West.
My photograph "Dixie Chicken" was published in the Bulle Rock newspaper.
My photography is on display at Hair Remedy in Fallston, Maryland.
My work can be found in private collections from Boca Raton, Florida
to Mount Hawthorn, WA - Australia
Thanks so much for stopping by....
