Memorable Quotes:


What I do as a photographer is irrelevant. The people and
their story is what matters

Great moments in life are meant to be created

Stop looking for light and start looking for shadow

The shift between highlight and shadow is what creates depth

Most amateurs underexpose their photos. I don't know why.

Expose for the highlight. If your subjects face is
underexposed your lighting is wrong.

Often times people make photography overcomplicated. It's
really simple.
