Welcome to my world of photography. I am truly glad you came to visit. If you have any comments or suggestions please let me know.

The most important thing about photography is what the eye sees. I like to think of myself as an explorer of light. Every picture that is taken is all about the right light. There are many different types of light; my specialty is using natural light that makes my subject look magical in everyday surroundings.

My goal as a photographer is not to be famous, but to find the right light to make you and your family or my subjects look famously!!



Types of photography

Individual and Family Portraiture

First and foremost I specialize in using natural light in everyday surroundings. Sessions should be un-staged and natural. Come dressed in your favorite colors and lets go play! (I can give you some recommendations on what to wear and what not to wear.) (a link here to contact/pricing) One of my favorite shoots was with family of four who brought their picnic and enjoyed the day. You will have my undivided attention for one to two hours. Let’s make the time we spend fun and I know we can capture some magic. Contact me for pricing.

Places and Nature’s Beauty

I enjoy traveling throughout our beautiful country. I specialize in “America Through My Eyes.” There are so many gorgeous places in America; it would take many lifetimes to experience all of them. I have traveled in almost every state and will continue to hunt for those magic moments.

Impressions

Everyday subjects romanticized through my eyes. Sometimes the sublime turns out to be the best picture. We all want that picture of the Grand Canyon but what else do you see? Is there angle that hasn’t been thought of?

About me

Having spent most of my life in Hawaii, I gained an appreciation for the natural beauty and amazing light of the Hawaiian Islands. It was this beauty of this natural world that inspired me to borrow my father’s 35mm SLR camera. My first formal training in photography was at my Big Island High School; I took a photography class taught by former Honolulu Star-Bulletin chief photographer Warren Roll (Who also happened to be my best friend’s Dad!). Photography has also been in my family, my Grandfather Tweedie was also an avid photographer and I can recall spending time in his darkroom developing black and white photographs, I can still smell the chemicals! Thank goodness for Digital.

While attending the University of Hawaii my skills were further honed as the school newspaper photographer. Since those beginning days my foray into professional photography has been methodical till one day I decided that I don’t do photography, I am a photographer.
