When I was in sixth grade, my Dad taught me how to use his Leica 35mm film camera and a world of wonder opened. At 15, I walked into a darkroom and discovered how to expose the light. I could share what I saw.
The rangefinder would become my frame: People being themselves, invitations to walk into a landscape. I could create a three dimensional experience on a piece of acetate.
In 1979, I started one of the first photo labs in Sonoma County, CA. Open tray B&W, drum processed color, Cibachrome, archival printing & custom developed C-41 as the digital age inched forward.
I remember the day I couldn't imagine a world without Kodak. And with each Portrait and Wedding, film was
being challenged. I carried two cameras. My trusty
Mamiya RB67 was always backed up using the latest in digital. And I was eager to see what megapixel wouId
come next.
Today, I capture images on mirrorless cameras & smart phones. And, faithfully married to ©Adobe Photoshop, have a lab in my laptop. Artwork begins its design using ©Photomatix Pro & ©Adobe Creative Suite, as I settle into the zen of adding a watercolor technique for a stained glass window impression.
