| Biography: |
Photography has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. We had a darkroom in the house when I was growing up, so I learned to develop black & white photos at a very early age. That led me to shoot for our local newspaper (The Punxsutawney Spirit) while I was in high school and college, and I still shoot Steelers games for them today.
Nowadays, I shoot a lot of senior portraits, local high school sports/band/musical groups, and I do some freelance work for a group of newspapers and for Reuters News Agency.
I am an avid Geocacher, and I have a passion for travel (I've been to all 50 states, and several other countries... like "Cleveland").
