Photography is my passion and has been for 45 plus years. My career in photography has allowed me to travel the world, meet some of the most interesting people on the planet and see things I could never have dreamed of.

I do this through Rockhopper Workshops and other projects as well as teaching at my Gallery in Indianapolis.
