Hailing from Tacoma, Washington, I had the pleasure of being surrounded by the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. I started out doing moderate trick photography with my aunt's new 35mm camera when I was about 10 years old.

Joining the Navy offered me more opportunities to expand my photograph and enter into a new arena, digital photography.

Joining the Navy offered me more opportunities to expand my photograph and enter into a new arena, digital photography. I bough my first digital camera as a return item in Hawaii and spent the next three months learning how to shoot with it. It would not be for a few more years and a few more trips around the world before I would get anything more powerful with regards to megapixels available. I soon was introduced to the Sony F828 digital camera, which was a great camera outside of its flash. I would shoot with the Sony until my purchase of my current camera, the Canon Rebel T1i. Although Canon continually improves on the model, I still love the quality of pictures I get with my Canon.
