"Seeing Jersey"

For me "seeing Jersey" is a way of seeing, a sense of what you value and therefore what you want to share in your art. In your photography. it's an adjective that describes and defines how I look at things, whether they're in New Jersey, the larger Delaware Valley, or the whole big world. I've lived in Indiana, in Massachusetts, in Chicago, Illinois and love them all. But being born and raised in Trenton, I'm still seeing Jersey.

As a stock photographer, I have contributed to such magazines as New Jersey Monthly, New Jersey Countryside and Destinations Magazine among others. The main focus of this commercial work is New Jersey and the Delaware Valley.

My fine art work has been shown in galleries and exhibits in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and California, is part of the permanent collection of the Michener Museum, the Newark Public Library Special Collection and is held in several private collections.
