About Me
About myself, I was born and raised in New York's Lower East Side where the back drop was and continues to be home to many great Motion pictures as well as TV shows. As a kid I could not help, but be drawn to movie-sets, often skipping school for weeks at a time in order to hang out with actors such as Ernie Borgnine, Carrol O'Connor and learn tricks of the trade with movie directors and cast, although often winding up being the errand boy. I was intrigued watching how the director of photography used different angles in order to set up great shots along with the proper lighting, it was amazing. I'll never forget the first time I met Academy award winning Director Mr. William Friedkin, I had seen the movie Exorcist and wanted to know how he created the scary scene with Actress Linda Blair spewing all that green stuff, he later explained he created the whole FX using split pea soup ... needless to say from that moment on, I knew I was hooked with film and pictures. Although I took a photo journalism and photography class back in school, I consider myself to be self taught in the art of photography and continue to learn on a daily basis.Fast forward to present, As a photographer I shoot many famous Jazz Musicians, such as Master Percussionist Sammy Figueroa, Fred Thomas (original James Brown Bassist) Live Music Events as well as Portraiture, Architecture and Landscapes. I also enjoy traveling around the world, I believe that travel truly broadens one's horizons' Experiencing different cultures, meeting people from other countries and seeing the beauty of the world has helped me understand, that all of our lives are at once interconnected and individual. It makes me appreciate my culture as well as that of the people I've met and the places I've seen. Through my photography I seek to document my own personal experiences, capture scenes and events as I see them and share with others the beauty and diversity of the world as I've seen. My way of giving back is by capturing a moment in time and sharing it with the world in the most visually dynamic way I know.
You can be my friend if...
