I specialize in creative automotive photography.. I love using my wide angle lens and HDR to create unique images of classic cars.

I've been a photo junkie for as long as I can remember. I remember when I was a kid - maybe 8 or 9 years old.. having a 110 film camera.. took pictures everywhere I went. Since then, I've progressed a bit in my choice of camera - now I use a Canon 7D, along with a Macbook Pro for postprocessing (Lightroom 4, Photomatix Pro). I love taking photos and sharing them with friends and family... it's great to be able to capture special moments in time and preserve them for people I care about.
A few years ago, I found a great HDR tutorial, which REALLY helped me get the look I wanted with Photomatix ... the guy who wrote the tutorial (kevin crafts) creates some amazing HDR images. Here's a link to the tutorial he put together,... hope you find it as helpful as I did!

And here's a link to his HDR Photostream:

His work really inspired me to get more creative with my HDR images, and I believe I've really improved since reading and following his tutorial
