While photography is not my profession, it is a great passion of mine and one I have spent years studying.  Though mostly self-trained, as a photographer, I strive to learn more and challenge myself, constantly improving my ability.  As a professional paddler, it is important to be proficient at all aspects of the sport in order to accomplish self-promotion.  Producing and editing my own photos directly aids in my gaining many different avenues of exposure at minimal cost. I have also found that this not only benefits me and my career, but also helps other paddlers and vendors who may not have the means to pursue the exposure they deserve.  Throughout my career, I have had the priviledge of  paddling with some of the most talented kayakers in the world.  These experiences have given me the opportunity to shoot some great photos which has, in return, helped me improve, not only my photography, but my networking as well.  It is through the contacts I have made that my photography has been used and featured in such magazines as Sidetracked Magazine, Paddler Magazine, Rapid Magazine, American Whitewater and Kayak Session.  I offer this as a paddler to help you, as my potential sponsor or product supplier, to put your products in the public eye giving you more exposure and free advertisement.  Needless to say, I enjoy using my abilities to benefit us both at little to no financial risk.  Please contact me if I can be of any help to you and we'll see what we can do for each other.   See you on the bank soon.
