I’ve been an obsessed and passionate about photography since 1970 in my early marriage to Judy. In 1974, I bought my first 35mm Mamiya/Sekor DTL1000 in Ft. Gordon, Ga. at the PX. I captured images of my GaARNG unit which are treasured by me all these years later. Commercially, I’ve worked for my home town newspaper as a freelance sports photographer. From 1989 -1994, I freelanced with MGM Television’s “In the Heat of the Night”, filmed in my hometown of Covington, Georgia. This opened opportunities with CBS as first assistant to Senior Photographers, Tony Esparza and Monty Brinton. As a team, we photographed the stars of CBS television productions. This is where I learned on location studio lighting. My father and I created the Hollywood South souvenir shop where we sold images of the stars and guest stars I I took on location. It was located in our family Major Appliance Store in Covington which was right in the middle of fictional Sparta, Mississippi police station set. For the past 13 years I’ve ventured into Real Estate Photography after getting my NC Real Estate License. I’m currently affiliated with Coldwell Banker Advantage here in High Point, NC. Specializing in Agent Head Shots and marketing photography of over 490 homes listed by REALTORS on the Triad MLS.
For pleasure, I’ve been an underwear photographer with over 220 ocean dives. A Nature photographer at heart, capturing Gods creatures and creations.
From film to digital, Nikon has been by my side.
Cheers!
