One of my favorite passions in life is photography.  It started when I was 13 and purchased my first camera, a low-end Kodak Advantix camera and my first few rolls of film were used on a field trip to the East Coast.  The ability to compose shots and show the beauty of things from a certain perspective was what fascinated me most.  With the usages of lenses, aperture, shutter speeds, panning, and imagination, you can express anything you desire in the form of a picture.

Over the years as money became more plentiful, my old passion was revived in the age of the digital revolution.  Throughout the years, I have owned a 1-megapixel Fujifilm MX-1200, 3.2-megapixel Sony Mavica DSC-F55, 5-megapixel Sony Cybershot DSC-P92, 8-megapixel Olympus C-8080 Wide Zoom and finally my current setup includes my 6-megapixel Fujifilm Finepix F30 low-light point-and-shoot camera and my 10-megapixel Sony dSLR with the following:

Sony DSC-A100, Image-Stabilized dSLR
Sony 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6(D) lens
Minolta 50mm f/1.7(RS) lens
Minolta 70-210 f/4 lens
Sony 28-75mm f/2.8(D) lens *coming soon*

Can you book me for a gig?

Sure!  I am always willing to exercise my skills and get paid (and/or fed) for it.  Prices range depending on the event, but since I am not a professional, please understand if I deny larger projects (e.g. weddings).  Please check out my Imagestation albums before you consider me as your photographer, to understand the quality and quantity you can expect to receive.
