EQUIPMENT & EXPERIENCE

 



 Over 20 years experience using Nikon & Canon equipment.  I also equipped myself with the most current software & hardware available, which allows me to move through the production process efficiently and meticulously.

Medium and large format cameras are always desired for the desired look only they can produce.

Though my experience encompasses the Twin Lens Rolleiflex, Mamiya RB67 or the Sinar 4x5 all with digital backs. 

As a professional a digital darkroom is essential to our ever-changing industry. A commitment to keeping up with technology is pivotal to the quality of service and product I deliver.
