I have been taking pictures for about 25 years. Most of my experience has been with family and  friends along  with  several baseball  vacations.  Some of  my  first actions shots where of  cliff divers  in Acapulco  Mexico while on my honeymoon. I was able to get  four pictures of  a diver before he hit the water below.  This  was done with  a film camera, not  the digital equipment we use today!

My passion is clearly  action and sports photography.  While I spend the majority  of my time working behind a desk, I truly love the opportunity to get out on the ball field and  take  action shots.  My goal  has  always  been to  “catch a ball  in  flight” or  the expression on the players face when he/she delivers  the ball or slides  into home!

I am most comfortable trying to anticipate where the action will be,  I try to catch  the moment in time that happens too fast  for the  average spectator  to see.  It's  amazing what you can capture when you slow down the game. I’ve had several coaches and a few  umpires ask me for samples of my work to verify  a call  or to use as a  coaching tool for their players. I currently use Nikon equipment, and find that my motivation for this website  is primarily to support my “camera  habit.”  Photography equipment  can be  very expensive,  as a hobby  it would  be difficult  to maintain  and upgrade  my equipment as the megapixals and speed increase every year!

Welcome to my  site, I hope you enjoy your stay!
