I am a Montana native who enjoys the beauty of the scenic landscapes of "The Treasure State".  Born in Havre, Montana and raised on the High Line I have enjoyed the prairies and flat lands.  I attended college in Glendive which allowed me to experience the badlands and wide open spaces of Eastern Montana. I now live in Billings where I get to enjoy all the landscapes, along with the mountains.

     I have been a hobbyist photographer since 1977.  I converted  from traditional film to digital photography about twelve years ago.  This allows me to have my "dark room" on my computer and enjoy more of the artistic aspects of photography.  My favorite shooting subjects are landscapes with western appeal.  I refer to it as "wrangling the light".  

     I'm a current member of the Professional Photographers of America, Montana Professional Photographer's Association, the Photographic Institute Of The Yellowstone, the Photographic Society of America and president of the Billings Camera Club.

     In April of 2011, 2012 and 2013 I was recognized for my accomplishments in the field of photography and awarded a certificate for Montana "Top Ten" Photographers by the Montana Professional Photographers Association.
