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.
