I have been a freelance photographer specializing in the photography of people since 1985. My clients include Entrepreneur, Forbes, National Geographic Traveler magazines, ING, Aetna, XL Insurance, Goodwin College, UCONN, and Cheshire Academy. I have photographed more than 350 weddings. Dual citizenship in the United States and Ireland (EEC) allows me to move freely throughout the American, Europe
an and Latin cultures. Spanish is my second language. Closer to home, Farmington Connecticut, I was selected by the State to capture the heart and soul of our people, the landscapes and seasons for the annual vacation guide. My work has also appeared in the Artists of Connecticut Calendars. I have twice exhibited at Hartford's Real Art Ways Gallery. I was one of the ten New England ASMP (American Society of Magazine Photographers) members chosen for the Artists of Connecticut, and one of the top ten photographers in the Golden Light Awards of Maine’s Photographic Workshops. It is gratifying, of course, to receive these honors, but my most precious award came as the result of my pro bono work with the Heart Gallery; a division of the State of Connecticut’s Department of Children and Families, they have a traveling exhibit of children’s portraits available for adoption. I received a phone call that a boy, James, the child in my most recent portrait, was placed with a loving family a loving family after they had seen the exposition. I am currently working on a photographic book project entitled 'People and their Passion', a series of portraits of unique individuals within the environments of their lives and work that reflect their passion for life. When photographing a wedding, a corporate annual report, a studio still life, or a graduation ceremony, my aim is to capture the heart and soul of each assignment. My favorite compliment was, “Wow! How did you catch that shot? I didn’t even know you were there!”
