about

Based in Brunswick (just east of Portland), I am a Maine photographer specializing in documentary photography for editorial, education & commercial clients.

Familiar with all parts of Maine, I regularly travel--on assignment and for pleasure--throughout Maine and Northern New England.

With an ever-expanding collection of Maine stock photography, I am known for clean, evocative images that use strong color, exceptional light and careful composition to create impact.

I belong to the American Society of Media Photographers; the Maine Professional Photographers Association; the Professional Photographers of America and the PLUS Coalition.
