I was born and raised in Clarion, Pennsylvania....a small town about 90 miles north of Pittsburgh. I took an avid interest in the usual things as a kid, like baseball & dirt bikes, but around ninth grade my parents moved, which meant attending a rival high school. It was there that I met a someone who would be influential to my interest of photography, Mr. Sykes.  He introduced me to the typical avenues that art can take someone, like oil painting and pencil sketching, and then he showed me his Canon A1 35mm SLR.  Since that day, and through a four year tour in the U.S. Navy in the 80's, the interest was always there....I even had opportunities to shoot photos of Russian warships or anything else for that matter that had electronic surveillance equipment onboard. In 1999 I decided to change direction and delve into sports & portrait photography. In 2002 ProPoint Media Photography was founded and painting with light hasn't stopped since.
