ON WORKING WITH ME: If you left your sense of humour at home, then go back and get it.

I was born in Tuscon Arizona. My dad was a school teacher and got a job in Los Angeles. We moved to L.A. and I've been here ever since. I've always loved photography. The thought that you could take a piece of time home in a box was...and still is very exciting to me. I did 3 years in the Navy then got a job as a lighting technician at Paramount Studios. I did that for about 26 years. In 2001 I ruptured 2 disks in my back. I now have to use photography as a sorce of income. It's very hard making any kind of living with photography.....at least for me. I do the best I can to get by. I love what I do and I hope the images in the gallery here reflect that :o)

This is my little website http://www.imagesforyouphoto.com/index.html and you can visit my MySpace pages here http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=2731754

I love just spending the day driving around with my camera taking pictures of different things. I love throwing a frisbee around sometimes. My favorite food is cheese enchiladas. I am a big fan of Elvis Presley. His colorful life and music has always fascinated me. I love all kinds of music except rap and hip hop. I just don't get it.

Thanks for the comment on my alligator image - Just snapped the shot and he slid off into the swamp waters! Timing is everything right?

Hey John, how are you doing? I've been busy with getting ready for 2 shows in Dec, hope to do more. This has been the worse year EVER for artists & galleries here in Santa Fe! I have a son in Hollywood. We used to live in Orange County for years & Mammoth Lks. Looks like Hollywood is settling in pretty dood here too. I've been doing head shots & composites for a little extra money. Don't get to do anything as creative as you do. Hope you are doing better & staying out of the fires.
