Here's some of my favorite images from 2012, a year that brought with it a notable shift in my thoughts and feelings on life, along with new senses of maturity and responsibility. Changes in my personal relationships, growth and setbacks on the work front, and even the death of a friend’s pet I’d grown to love as my own all contributed to this paradigm shift, I’m sure. Besides, all of those things make for a much more logical-sounding explanation for feeling older than the errant grey hairs atop my head that now plague my view in the bathroom mirror.

-------
I'm a graduate of Columbia College Chicago with a BA in theater / lighting design. Lighting has always been a passion for me, even at a very young age. As a five year old attending the circus, I can recall paying more attention to the followspot operators than the tigers and elephants!
Around the same age, I first got my hands on my dad's Canon AE-1. Rather than steering me away from the craft of photography, my dad encouraged me to use the family camera. I believe that this early exposure to cameras, coupled with my insatiable fascination for lighting, set the stage for my current, though somewhat broad, interests in both the fields of photography and videography as well as lighting design.
Many of the freelance projects I take on involve one or more of my fields of expertise overlapping, such as lighting a video shoot for television, or photographing a theatrical performance on stage. No matter what the job, however, I always feel like I'm doing the farthest thing possible from work. My occupations are also my passions, and I couldn't ask for anything more.
