I've been shooting professionally for eighteen years although my love for photography spans twenty five years. I consider myself fortunate to have started my career back in the old school days of film, when all professionals crafted images not only during the shoot, but also post production in darkroom. The skills that I learned in my early apprenticeship years have transgressed and advanced perfectly with the modern digital age.
Post production, I digitally craft my images merging former knowledge I once used in the darkroom with modern digital techniques acquired over the last 12 years. Photoshop (my digital darkroom) is a skill I believe to be of equal importance to the shoot, something that is very much overlooked, ignored or outsourced by many other photographers today.
