About Me and the Industry (The image is of a client and not myself)

I am a local professional photographer that has been in the field of photography for over 30 years.  I have seen how this industry has changed and although I embrace some of the changes I also am saddened by what the changes has done to our industry. 

It is my mission in my business to provide a complete professional service including a professional product.  I will not be a photographer that will just photograph you and let you do the rest.  I will and must deliver you a product that is created using all stages of professionalism.

I also hope that when you are choosing a photographer to capture those special moments in your life you chose someone with experience, references and credentials.  At this time I would like to share my credentials with you.

I have been in the field of photography for over 30 years.  I am a certified Master Photographer and a Master Artist through the Professional Photographers of America.  I am also the Secretary of the Missouri Professional Photographers.  I not only help to provide seminars for other photographers I also attend many events myself to further my knowledge in this industry.  I assure you that you will be in good hands.

As always consumers should be careful.  It truely is Buyers Beware world!  It seems that with the increase of technology the field of photography has been flooded with new photographers.  Some are becoming excellent photographers and some are not so good.  Some are going to be wonderful business people and then there will be some that will not do well and that is when the consumer may suffer most.  So as in anything you do, let the BUYER BEWARE!!!  Please enjoy following me and seeing images I have taken for clients and for pleasure.
