History
After graduating with an MFA in Photography from ASU, I started photographing children mostly. I was in my home town of Lake Charles, LA. I had a card table set up in one of my parents bedrooms at home. My mom had a phone with a long cord. I sat at that table with a list consisting of families that I have known all my life. I called each one of them, asking if I could photograph their children. My intention, was to get in to their heads, make a connection, and provide their families with more than a posed picture. I was looking for their personality, their soul. Something I would take their pictures, then go to the darkroom and develop the film. Then I would make a contact sheet to show the parents. From the contact sheet I hand printed each print. This did not last long, of course! Soon I was working with a local lab, which is still in Lake Charles, called Photo Tek. Before I knew it, one thing lead to another and my business started growing. I am now located in New Orleans, LA.
