    I have a love of technology and gadgets.  I also enjoy the feeling of helping others and teaching people.  Although my wife and I have no children, I have been told I have a gift for working with kids.  I have volunteered with many youth activities from being the deputy commander for cadets in Civil Air Patrol squadrons to teaching astronomy seminars at local schools.  Parents and educators alike have always lauded my skills and efforts.  I come from a family gifted in both the arts and technology.  While I inherited the love of both, my gifts lean towards the artistic.  I have chosen to develop these gifts in the area of photography and videography.  I took film school in 1999-2000, have taken photography and camera courses in college and attended several professional development seminars for photographers and videographers.  I have earned additional degrees in fine art and photography through Northwest Vista College and the University of Texas.  I won’t list all of my achievements.  Just know that I have done respectable jobs for others and hope to do the same for you and your family.

    Thanks for meeting me.  I enjoy showing my work and like many photographers think I’m pretty good.  But I think the best way to evaluate someones work is to evaluate it yourself and listen to what other clients have to say.  After this, I’ll tell you what I think makes me tick.
