“Capturing the Diversity of Life.”

Life is like a Camera. Just focus on what's important. Capture the good times. Develop from the negatives & if things don't work out... just take another shot.

    About the Author

    “Open Doors for Life”

    For most of my professional life, I have been in a position to serve others by leading through integrity, and with a concern for people’s welfare.

    After I retired from Corporate America, I continued in this direction using my past skills along with my photography by telling people’s stories. Stories in photographs and stories in words. 

    At first, I traveled in various parts of the U.S. In 2021, I was given an opportunity to travel to South Africa to support some of the nonprofit organizations, supporting them with fundraising needs by documenting their stories in photographs.

    I wish to continue my traveling around the globe supporting humankind by using my collective skills in anyway where I am needed.

  • Moments In Life Blog

    In 2017 I needed to explore my artistic side and realized I needed to diversify my work telling stories in a wide variety of Photography mediums. Areas I have explored are:

    Portrait - Sports - Still Life - Editorial - Plus…

    In the BLOG section in my site, my work is dedicated to the people who have made a difference in the improvement of others.

    I tell the stories of people through my lens and in words with the goal of documenting not only important issues of our times, but ones that will also be relevant or perhaps even more vital for our understanding of humanity.

    Pictured here are a group of young man from the Town of Masiphulele, South Africa taken when I was given a tour of the town.

    The young boy was following me during the tour and made sure he got in as many pictures as possible.

  • Editorial

    Up until 2016, as a fitness photographer, I was still finding myself as a photographer and I was starting to lose my passion. There was this inner desire wanting me to break out to explore other directions with photography.

    Then, out of the blue, I had a request from two magazines to do an editorial shoot for their publications.

    My first publication was was from Paris, France and the second was in Amsterdam, Nederland.

    From that point on, I had found my focus and realized my passion was to tell stories with my photographs.

    My images are meant to tell a story with a focus on creating a specific mood or tone for the piece.

    An editorial photograph refers to images that run alongside text in print or online publications.

  • Lifestyle

    Lifestyle photography is a genre of photography that aims to capture portraits of people in situations, real-life events in an artistic manner and the art of the everyday.

    My primary goal is to tell stores about people’s lives or to inspire people..

    Pictured here are two people I developed a friendship with while I was in South Africa for Humanitarian Photography.

  • Fitness

    I started out as a fitness photographer primarily due to my wife (story in ‘About’)

    As a fitness photographer I specialize in the world of exercise and wellness.

    I incorporate my editorial and lifestyle photography for the fitness models.

As a photographer, I strive to contribute to society by capturing life and telling its stories in photos and in words.

I am passionate about the creation of my art.

I am myself and do not let others define who I am.

I follow my heart, happy and free.

I continually try to inspire people by letting them know we all can change the world.
