Originally from Jacksonville Florida, I moved to Atlanta in 1984 where in high school I discovered my love for photography. I then went on to study at the Lamar Dodd School of Art at University of Georgia.
Out of college I began working as photo consultant & custom dark room printer for Michael Stipe of R.E.M. from 1993-2000.
Then in 2000 I took the leap and opened my own full time studio, shooting commercial work and editorial work for publications all over the southeast.
From 2006-08 I was the Co-Creator and Head of Photography for ATHENA Magazine for Women.
I am still living in Athens and splitting my time between Athens, Atlanta and Savanna, shooting commercial work and my personal B&W portrait projects.
Current Board member of the Athens Cultural Affairs Commission.
Studio Manager & Assistant to Painter / Filmmaker Jim Herbert.
