What started as a hobby with the birth of my son Maxwell soon turned into a passion and eventually into a career in photography.

For over 7 years I have dedicated myself to learning the art and the science of photography.

My specialties include sports photography, family portraits, and senior pictures. While I have shot many of my son's sporting events, I have also shot professional events such as the Hy-Vee Triathlon, Omaha Inaugural Triathlon, Des Moines Menace, Iowa Energy, and the Iowa Cubs. I currently represent MaxPreps, Brightroom, Action Sports International Inc., and Drake University.

Shooting the pro's can be exciting but, I always enjoy capturing aspiring young athletes. I am available to photograph your child "on location: during games or practices. As a father, I know that capturing a special moment at my childs sporting event will be a treasure for both him and me in the future.

Family photos are a great way to freeze a special moment in time. A first birthday, an anniversary, the moment you realize your son will be taller than you. I take family photos that reflect the personality and the style of the individual family. Casual, fun, formal - that's for you to decide. Indoor, outdoor, winter, spring, summer, fall - your moment, your choice.

Please take a moment to browse through my photo galleries. Perhaps you will be inspired to get your family together for a much overdue photo.

Please call or e-mail me to discuss how we can capture your special moment in time.

Thanks,
