Your Bio

Hello, and welcome to my site. Thanks for stopping by!

In the way of background, I have enjoyed photography ever since I can remember. It seems like I was always taking photos with my classic Kodak Instamatic; some of you may remember that innovative camera. Well, I continued my photography in high school, mainly to take pictures of my growing interest--all types of architecture. Upon entering college to study architecture, I bought an SLR camera for a course to learn about the fine art of photography. After college, life settled in quickly and many other priorities replaced my photographic pursuits. I did, however, manage to occasionally photo-document buildings in connection with my architectural work. Then, a couple of years ago, I gained a renewed interest in photography, and some more time to give it the serious attention it deserved.

Although I have had several cameras over the years, entering into the digital age was like starting over again, at least technically. I bought a new DSLR then (and just upgraded recently), and am enjoying exploring this new world every chance I can find. And, my interest in architecture and the desire to capture wonderful spaces, forms and buildings from, hopefully, unique points of view, is still with me. In addition to taking pictures of places and things around us with literal images, photography can also serve as a great medium to convey certain important life concepts through figurative, symbolic and abstract images. This is the next frontier to explore and to express.

So, I invite you to take a few minutes and stroll through my galleries.

Best Regards,
Steve
