Directors |
His relationship with photography began at age 12, when his dad, a professional photographer for many years, taught him camera and darkroom techniques. In the early 1990’s, working for IBM, he began experimenting with and developing techniques in digital multimedia storytelling, using emerging A/V hardware and software and Internet technologies. With IBM he led multimedia projects for the 1994 Lillehammer and 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, Disney’s Epcot Center, the World Golf Hall of Fame, the Masters Tournament and the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. Since 2000, he has worked on digital media projects for the British Broadcasting Company and AT&T, opening his own photography studio in 2014. Music, Dance and Theater are his passion. Fine Art Projects include landscape photography on four continents and abstract impressions of real-life subjects. Corporate clients include the J. Walter Thompson Agency, Atlanta Regional Commission, and AT&T Corporation. Professionally, he is Certified by the Professional Photographers of America and am a past-president and active member of the Southeastern Photographic Society. |
