About Me

Thank You Models, Photographers, Videographers, MUA’s and Other Artists!

My Motto: “Do What You Love!” And financial remuneration and other rewards are Shute to follow.

“Beauty is About Radiating Your
          Natural Essence
          So Let Yourself
            Shine Through!”

I’ve been told that I’m “fun, easy and ‘laid back’ to work with!”


I particularly enjoy creating works of art that tell a story. Helping models visually express Courage, Honesty, Wisdom, Strength, Gracefulness, Mystery!”  while evoking parallel emotions from an audience of viewers!


“One should either be a work of art, or wear a work of art" - Oscar Wilde.

  These are the Best Years of your Life!
You are the Diamond in the Rough! The Gem!
        Let’s bring out the finest in You!

That’s what I love about photographs!
They are proof that, once,
if for just a Heart-beat,
Everything was just PERFECT!


My Motto’s: "Win/Win” &  Help Others!"

Credit Notes

I'm passionate about my work.
I started with a Canon Cannonette
gifted to me by my father in the 1980's, when
I began filming sporting events and nature along
the California Coast and Lake Tahoe and Yosemite
Valley -- professional surfing, skiing, football, basketball,
professional golf, and college swimming water polo.

      More recently I've been asked to take portraits
and photograph weddings and political events. Photographed
two presidents, numerous confressman, Mayors, Governors,
and others

  To accomplish the very best results, I occasionally
team up with other photographers. I've found
that our clients appreciate the amazing photos
that are the result of careful attention to the
use light, shutter speed and f-stop, plus,
careful planning, amazing locations, and
decades of  experience.

or TFP. I hope we can help build one anothers
Portfolios - A Win/Win!
