I have been a video/photographer for over 20 years. My experience encompasses wide range of subjects and occasions: sporting events (swimming, dancing, tennis, ice hockey and skiing), music concerts, theatrical performances, school events, and life events such as wedding, family portraits, graduation, family trip and picnic.

It is my belief that camera is at its best when it captures "the moment". I create the moment when I take photographs. Please enjoy my gallery and if you appreciate, please contact me for a conversation.

I can be contacted either at 203-216-4413 or [email protected].
