About Me...I am an independent photographer, hobbyist and paid freelance digital SLR photographer living in Cuba, Missouri. Photography is a stress relieving passion for me that began in college. After college I continued to take pictures – mostly of nature and landscapes – for personal enjoyment. Through the years photography, and my equipment, have evolved from film to digital, but the concept and practices have remained the same.A large part of my photography portfolio now consists of sports photography, but I continue to do landscape and nature photos, event photography, portraiture, senior photos and occasionally engagement/wedding photography. Skilled in digital post-production using Photoshop – there’s not much I can’t do. I'm a fan of natural light, and as such prefer outdoor shooting rather than indoor studio work, but can accommodate requests for indoor studio sessions.A number of my photographs have been published in various places. Newspapers that my work appears in regularly include The Saint James Leader-Journal and The Rolla Daily News. Some of my work is also displayed on the website for the State of Missouri government portal.Memberships:National Press Photographers Association -- http://www.nppa.orgNational Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association -- http://www.nssafame.comInternational Sports Press Association -- http://www.aipsmedia.comGear currently in my bag:- Nikon D300s camera body (two)
