Fascinated from a young age in black & grey tattoo art, graphite and lead, I finally happened across a medium where I could achieve those solid dark black and grey-to-white tones that had taken me hours upon hours to achieve while smearing charcoal on heavy drawing paper.

I never expected to be a photographer; I just wanted to be an artist.

Photography was not a pre-determined path for me, yet unexpectedly I found that my surrounding world was full of life, expression and emotion and I had the ability to capture it.
