About my work
Born
and raised in southern California, I have been an artist all my life.
Exploring all mediums of art from sketch to sculpture. In photography
and through the use of Photoshop I found I could channel different
mediums and artistic energies into one creation. I have worked as a
professional photographer and Photoshop artist for the past thirteen
years.
The focus for most of my professional career was on product photography a few of my clients included Z Gallerie, Pavillions, Von's. I
have since found a new passion in creating artistic portrait
photography. I love the creative freedom with out limitations that it
provides me. When creating a portrait I try to capture the story of each
individuals personality, while fusing classic elegance with modern
twists. I believe in creating a unique and beautiful piece of art in
each portrait.
In 1998, I obtained my degree in illustration and advertising photography from Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara. Moving to L.A after graduation I worked as a professional photographer and photoshop artist for the past 13 years.
I have won numerous awards for my photography and other artistic creations. My work has been displayed in galleries, Museums, exhibitions, magazines and billboards. I am always looking for new ways and outlets to further my artistic style and broaden the spectrum of ideas that I put into my art. I am represented by the Ellen Charapko Gallery in Fort Lauderdale, Florida for my fine art work.
I currently reside on Naples Island in Long Beach, and have just opened my new photography studio on 2nd street in Belmont Shore of Long Beach California.
