I’ve been taking images for about as long as I can remember. I am happiest when I am behind a camera, shooting. I like all kinds of subjects, but what I enjoy the most is travel, nature, scenics and people. I especially appreciate the opportunities that I have had to use my craft to illustrate some of the pressing issues of our world. My work in the documentation of International Development takes me to the ghettos and remote villages in many developing countries of the world. I am always saddened by the poverty, amazed at the resilience of the people and inspired by the children who smile through their pain and hunger.
There are about a billion people out there that are living in extreme poverty. Of this group, millions die every year, needlessly.
An additional two billion people struggle to survive on about two dollars a day. This is how "the other half" lives. In many ways, because of their very position, they do not have a voice. My goal, and the vision of this web site is provide a venue where their stories can be told.
I am available for photographic and/or video assignments. If your organization serves humanity, I would be especially interested in exploring ways in which we might collaborate to help share your vision with the world.
Education: Masters of Divinity with additional studies in International Development
Experience: 17 years in video production, a lifetime in still photography.
