About Me


Friends and family simply call me "JR" as I share the same first name with my father. As you can see I have an interest in photography. I would like to share my work with others in hopes that someone will enjoy what I do. I am 100% self taught and learning more every day. My current camera is a Canon 30D SLR with various basic lenses and I plan on upgrading to a better camera soon. I use Photoshop CS2 to express my artistic side. I like photos to have great color and contrast. Don't get me wrong, the raw images are just fine, but I quite enjoy the editing process more. I was voted most artistic in High School and since have left the paintbrush and pencils far behind. Photoshop has givin me a chance to be creative once again. Other interests include motorcycles (I own two), I play drums and I have a passion for all music! :) Peace
