Photography is my passion! It's not just about getting the shot, but it's the whole journey to the final image. The best part of my work is when a person tells me that an image of mine has touched them or taken them somewhere else.
I carried a 110 camera around with me for years until I got my first 35 mm SLR after college. A chance opportunity to model in Paris and years later a change in careers from teaching to modeling again has brought me here...
A View from the Other Side of the Lens--
As a professional model for over 25 years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with some of the best photographers in the business. From technical aspects of the camera, the use of natural light, to a full appreciation of the creative process, the knowledge I’ve gained from working with these professionals has been invaluable.
Global Perspective--
I was fortunate to live and work in some of the most beautiful cities in the world: Paris, Munich, London, Sydney, Miami, Chicago, and San Francisco. Traveling the world has left lasting impressions on me, many of which I have captured through my images.
Natural Approach--
My approach to photography is natural; from my preference to shooting film, to my love of using natural light. I provide my clients with digital files, but the richness in color and contrast of film will always be compelling to me. All images are taken with my Nikon F3 cameras, and a variety
of Nikkor lenses. I shoot Velvia 50 film for landscapes and floral shots.
Whether I am shooting the delicate layers of a flower, an oak tree on a preserve, or a café in Paris, I find beauty in everything. My passion is to reveal it through the lens of my camera.
Thank you for looking at my work. I truly appreciate it!
