Someone once said, "A birth certificate says we were born and a death certificate says we died, but photographs say we lived." At the age of 15, with my mother's Kodak Brownie Hawkeye, I discovered a life-long fascination with the ability to permanently perserve the memories of a unique instant in time. Since then, I have spent many pleasurable years behind the camera's eye photographing a myriad of people, places and countless other subjects.
