I’m a Washington, D.C.-based real estate developer who’s been an avid photographer for 40 years. Parallel to a career building and renovating apartment communities in the region, I’ve published numerous photographs and won awards for candid portraits.

​

My real estate development work is flexible enough such that I can devote time to professional photo assignments.

​

My photography centers on portraits and group captures taken at home, work, events, sports, parties, travel, and in high adventure outdoor settings. I enjoy listening — but also carefully colloborating — with my clients on the type of photographs they want. For example, I might find they desire a mix between candid/journalistic style and posed/formal styles.

​

Once we figure out the style, I conduct myself in a manner that brings out the best of my subjects, be it fun and engaging, or less conspicuous and restrained.

​

I’m mostly asked to shoot in color, but have had successes and won awards for my black & white work. My style is kinetic, taking hundreds of shots from multiple angles using a complete range of state of the art camera bodies, flash, and lenses (Nikon). Within two days after the shoot, I carefully select a large amount of eye-catching images (e.g great lighting, gesture, composition, exposure, decisive moment, peak action) which I fine-tune in Lightroom and Photoshop.
