I am a portrait, event and fine art photographer. Because I sell my fine art to galleries, I take portraits with a very creative, artistic flair, finding unique venues and whimsical poses, always aiming to capture the preferred mood of the client. I sell my fine art all over the world as a Getty Images photographer, to publications and web sites all over the world. I also sell art to large retailers like Restoration Hardware and Ethan Allen. Some of my portrait and event clients include DC Embassies, members of Congress and foreign leaders. I do photo journalistic photography for political events.
