Hi and thank you for your interest in me as your photographer. I began photography in 1993 shooting for rodeo's and various concert venues. I proceeded to enroll and attend several classes and seminars hosted by Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, and Adobe. I have attended classes by Eddie Tapp "Industry Professional" on photoshop and workflow. I, however believe that hands-on experience is the most useful tool in this industry. Practice makes perfect they say, well it sure does make you constantly challenge yourself and your equipment to exceed your personal goals and the expectations of your Client's.

I strive to learn every day and that is what sets me apart from others in this industry. I am more concerned about truly identifying and understanding your project and scope of work than just making money. I am of the "Monte" opinion that we need to get back to basics a little and focus on superior photography and produce what the client expects. Each one of my client's gets my full attention every time we discuss a new project so that we can get it done correctly the first time and I can deliver the end result you expect and most importantly, deserve.
