'I don't create pictures, I make goosebumps' Alfred Hitchcock. I started out as a bored American teenager when my father took a job in the Middle East. That was when the passion of photography found me.. Soon after, I was paid by International Newspapers and travel publications for my work by age 15.. I am so lucky to live in the City of Long Beach in Southern California. The location affords me the opportunity to shoot almost any genre on a whim... Black and white, night (blue hour) and Landscape is my passion
