  "Photography is about telling a story and I've been working as a commercial photographer for over 20 years. Whether it be through one frame or a series of images, I love making photographs that speak about the subject. I'm drawn to location choices that complement a subject yet recede enough to allow the subject to dominate the image.

  Since growing up in Houston, TX in my father's printing company, I've always enjoyed the meticulous nature of my business. From operating an offset press at the age of 15, I learned the importance of quality craftsmanship that has remained an important aspect throughout my life. What I truly love about photography is both the technical and artistic sides. It's the balance of both of these that create interesting images that resonate with the viewer.

  In this day of digital media and our constant bombardment by visual clutter, it is so important to make imagery that tells its story in an elegant and unique way. Whether it's a single still photograph or a series, I enjoy making images that successfully communicate my client's vision.

  I live in beautiful Grapevine, TX along with my wife Rebecca and our two kids, Noah, 17 and Annalise,15.

  Clients include 44 Farms, AC Delco, Alcon, American Airlines, Amerisource Bergen, Apple, Atmos Energy, Chevrolet, Consilient Restaurant Group, D Magazine, Danner Footwear, Grapevine CVB, Harvard University, Lucchese Boots, New Balance Shoes, Oxxford Clothing Co., Pecan Lodge BBQ, Quik Trip, Russell's Reserve Bourbon Whiskey, Sears Craftsman Tools, Southwest Airlines, Sprint, Standard Meat Corp., The United Way, Titleist, Trinity Industries, USAA, USPS, Verizon, Walmart, and Wild Turkey."

  Title: Welders working inside a freight train car

  "This particular image was inside of a freight car being built in a small town in Texas. The freight car is actually on a rack that rolls the car as the worker's weld the inside. I started by positioning the three workers where I thought we wanted them in order to create a nice composition. Then we proceeded to light the car on the inside. We utilized two Profoto D-1 lights as well as two existing work lights that the facility uses for their workers.

  Since we have a lot of experience working with welders like this, we did several things to reduce the brightness of the welding wands.  Usually, at full intensity weld settings, the welders would be completely blown out, but we have learned over the years a variety of ways to reduce this intensity and therefore reduce the contrast of the image into a manageable dynamic range. Reducing the dynamic range is imperative in order to create an image that is well balanced in exposure."
