When my daughter was in college at LSU, we would pass these huge crosses each time my wife and I would visit her. Every time we did, I would think; “I need to photograph those crosses.” Finally, on the last trip to pick up my daughter when she finished her degree program, I took the [...]
A Popular Pier on the Lake
You wouldn’t know it to look at it, but there were a bunch of people all over the place while I was setting up to take photos of this pier on lake pontchartrain which is very close to the Treasure Chest Casio. In fact, the casino and boat launch are just across the street. [...]
Twin Bridges
Behind the scenes of one of my favorite and most popular images. At this distance, the normally crowed, active city melts into the skyline. The only sounds are those of the rushing Mississippi River and the traffic crossing over the bridges above. While I was standing along the rivers edge waiting for the right moment to [...]
Tools of the Trade

When I realized that my guitar instructor was actually sleeping during my lessons, I decided to go it alone. I was part of a garage band (our neighbors really loved that!). After high school, [...]
The Early Years.

In the Beginning…
The title of this post may seem.... overboard, but this is a new website and it occurred to me that I hadn't taken the time to tell the story of my work, how I got started and why I do it in the first place. It wouldn't be fair to say that there was a [...]
