Fell in love with photography when I was just a little kid; to me it was - and still is -magic. Started getting more serious about the craft in 1989 at Hofstra University and was blessed with some very knowledgeable professors. Got the photojournalism bug, had romantic dreams of flying off to distant lands, photographing conflict, famine and generally anything involving personal risk. Thank goodness THAT never happened. Landed a job with Newsday right out of college in 1994. Honed my skills working for five years with an incredibly talented staff of veteran photographers. Left in 1999 for graduate school at the prestigious Ohio University School of Visual Communications. Returned to New York and was hired as a photo editor for The Associated Press in 2001. Earned my Master of Arts in Visual Communications in 2003. Hired for a dream job in 2005 as corporate photographer for the NASDAQ Stock Market, spending the next four years meeting and photographing executives of the most influential corporations in America, as well as numerous celebrities. Running my own photography business since 2009.

How did you get started with photography

It all started with watching Disney and Spielberg movies as a kid. Every frame was a work of art, creating and stirring emotion within me. The day I picked up a camera for the first time, I found I had a natural talent for recreating the feeling I had when watching my favorite films. I've been honing my craft ever since.

What do you love about your job?

Life is fleeting, and there's nothing more important to me then capturing those special moments in peoples lives. To see the look on their faces as they reminisce over old photos is why I do what I do, because one day, those photos will be by me. Art and beauty is what we live for, and I wholesomely believe that capturing people, in a personalized way, is one of the most important roles I could have. Talent; family; surprise proposals; intimate moments. The greatest gift I could give anyone is capturing a photo of how it felt to be there.

What are some of your favorite places in New York City to take photographs?

Despite half of Manhattan being the most beautiful backdrop in the world, the West Village is probably my favorite area to shoot in. The streets are lined with some of the most gorgeous and distinctive architecture in New York. From vines covering entire buildings to rustic old garage doors, that area has personally helped me capture incredible photographs. Chinatown, Battery Park and Central Park in the winter are definitely my runners up.
