A native of Birmingham, AL., I began my photography journey as a freshman in high school. My interest in Photography started from my experiences in the Boy Scouts and my troop leader and lifelong friend, Jim Terry.
Jim is a local architect and an excellent photographer himself. He encouraged and taught me a great deal about the art of photography. At age 16, I won a Kodak Silver Medal of Excellence in Photography for a photo of my twin brother Tommy, (Photo on the right) in Cumberland Caverns (McMinnville, TN). Jim was the person who fired the flash unit that backlit this image.
While a student at Ramsay High School, I was the yearbook and newspaper photographer. I also enjoy photographing sports, landscapes, portraits, and current events in and around our city.
In 2024, I completed all of the requirements to earn a Certificate of Achievement in Photography from the Academy of the Arts at Samford University Accredited Photography program. My final Capstone Portfolio project is available to view on my website.
When I’m not behind the camera, I work as a Clinical Compounding Pharmacist at Harbin Pharmacy in Birmingham, AL. I’m also a Husband, Father, and Grandfather who enjoys backpacking, woodworking and singing.
