I've been shooting for over a dozen years now, starting with my high school yearbook, but it wasn't until my father bought me my first digital SLR that I really became passionate... obsessed even... about photography. Armed with a slew of Pentax DSLRs and lenses I began to photograph the world around me as I wanted to remember it. Good friends, strangers, concerts, some travel, some pets.

The second stage of my journey came when a roommate, Jeff Woods, became interested in off-camera strobe lighting. We lived in a house that frequently hosted concerts in the living room, giving me the perfect opportunity to shoot a lot of live music in my own controlled environment. www.trepid.org/events/houseshows/photos.

Lately, I've sold all of the Pentax equipment and switched to Nikon... mostly because of the demands of paid work.

I shoot with a Nikon D300s and D7000 (sometimes Pentax MX)

My lenses are:
Tokina 11-16/2.8
Nikkor 17-55/2.8
Tokina 50-135/2.8
Nikkor 35/1.8
Nikkor 60/2.8 G

Flashes:
SB-700, SB-900
Metz 48 AF-1
Alien Bees AB-800's
