I am a contractor simi-retired, husband of over 40 years father of two and grandfather of four. I am fan of motor sports and cars in general. I enjoy riding dual-sport motorcycle and often pack my camera with me. I have always been fastenated with pictures, in movies and magazines I always tried to see the photographer behind the image. I’ve always had a camera but with the perverbial “I had a family to raise” never took it to a higher level. Now I have the time to make what ever I can of photography. I shoot to amuse my self if I can amuse or amaze you then I can call my self a photographer.

Currant Project

Currantly I am documenting farms in the Skagit Valley more specificly the barns and there demise. I am photographing them mostly at night using a combination of lightpainting and long exposures. I find this method and the use of a super wide angle lens creates a sence of drama to these old barns and buildings. A story seems to be unfolding of the decline, decay, neglect and also the restoration and new found use of these quickly disapering barns. I have always had a love for old barns, I have built, rebuilt, restored and even dismantled them. The love of these barns continues in these photographs, where it will lead I don’t know, maybe on your wall or coffee table.
