I am a writer and photographer who lives, plays, works and breathes in New York City.

Thank you for your interest in my work. While my love and passion for New York City is by no means original, my work is...

Through my images of NYC, I strive to capture moments that should not simply be relegated to memory, left to the past - or never seen by more than a few. I try to capture scenes that truly embody the wonder and magnificence that comprise one of man's finest creations. New York is, and has always been, one of the greatest manifestations of human creativity.

Thank you for your interest in my work - and in THE NEW YORK SERIES.

While my love and passion for New York City is by no means original, my work is. After all, the world loves New York!

My wish is for you, the spectator, to get a sense of the New York I see as a resident of the world's most diverse city. So that you can in some way see yourself as a New Yorker, too.

I live in Downtown Manhattan. - two blocks south of the World Trade Center. While I was not living in NYC on September 11th, 2001, I moved to the Financial District to be a part of the neighborhood's revival.

Thank you and ciao from New York!
