What do you do now and what are you planning for the future? Currently, I shoot photography for companies, which in turn use these images on their website and promotional materials. Emphasis is placed on showing their core mission through visual images that portray exactly who they are and what they can offer clients. With an affinity for architecture, I am focusing my skills on visual aesthetics, in the context of a structured architectural environment. Also, I seek to combine interior lighting techniques with a professional approach to exterior architectural photography.
