I'm a photographer, and this blog is all about sharing my work. Through the images presented here I hope you'll experience the fun, energy, honesty and emotion I have been entrusted to document.

I specialize in the photography of family history because I love to create memorable images of real life, both for you and for your entire family. If that sounds interesting, drop me a line. I’d love to talk with you.

Until then, welcome.

Cruising through some old slides I came across this one: my Papa shooting a wedding :) I don’t know what the date is, probably some time in the 60’s I’d guess. Sadly I don’t have either of the Leicas he’s holding…how cool would that be!

The Wedding Garden

August 26th, 2008

Every once in a while I shoot a wedding, and the Bride and Groom have little trees as wedding favours. Over the years I have collected ten saplings, and I’m happy to report that they are all thriving in my garden…so much so that I may have to move them around a bit to make sure there is enough space for them to grow!

That’s my giant mutant hosta on the right.
