I have loved horses my whole life. When I was six or seven, I remember I had a framed lithograph drawing of Man ‘O War on my bedroom wall. In elementary school, I took riding lessons every week for five years in hopes that one day I might own a horse. At home in Evansiville, […]
Reflecting on 2014, I thought I would share some of the highlights from a very busy year, along with a few of my favorites photos from assignments that I shot for clients. Indulge me as I show off some of my work from last year, along with a few personal favorites. I took a trip […]
Last summer I had the amazing opportunity to be the on-set still photographer for director Lynn Shelton’s latest film “Laggies.” The film stars Keira Knightly, Sam Rockwell, Chloe Grace Moretz, Jeff Garlin and Mark Webber.

My last blog posting was way back in February – a big thanks to the freelance gods who have kept me so busy over the last eight months that I have totally neglected my blog, website and marketing outreach. I begin this posting with a cute kid photo to get your attention. Earlier this week, […]
Being an independent photographer or “freelancer” as my job is more commonly referred to, has many challenges. I never quite know the what, where or when of my next assignment (or when the next check will arrive in my mailbox!)
