I love all animals, especially cats.
I love exploring new ways to see the world around me.

For me photography is about making a connection. As a pet photographer capturing that special bond between a pet and their human elevates an image from a snapshot to a timeless memory. My one goal is to freeze that moment, behavior or look that makes us recognize the spirit of our furry companions. I love working with all pets and have a special place in my heart for photographing cats. When I am at home my cats Zazu (bengal) and Fergus (Rescue) are always with me. They think they are my assistants and work hard to help me or at least critique the images.

I have explored the world through my camera since I was about 10 years old.  Like many photographers, I took photos of everything.  In my film days, I enjoyed experimenting with different darkroom technics to get unusual effects.   I was compositing even back then.  And when digital first came out I was an early adopter.   My interest in electronics and all things high tech lead me to a career as a software engineer where I was one of the developers of the first mainstream web browsers; NCSA Mosaic.   I traveled extensively for my work and spent my off hours photographing the places I visited. 

In 2010 I decided to get more serious about my photography.   After taking a few online photography classes I focused on combining my photography and love of animals. I feel like I found my calling.
