Photography for me is a way to slow down and see things that I might otherwise miss. It is a way to capture moods and evoke emotions that get crowded into the corners of daily life and get neglected or forgotten. It's my way of stopping to smell the roses. It is good to think that others might find something in my pictures that they had missed, but now can remember and appreciate.
I grew up in Kansas City, Kansas, and received a Journalism degree from the University of Kansas in 1973. I have worked in television news for 34 years, 29 of those at WDAF-TV, where I am the news department's Special Projects Manager. My wife Nancy and I have lived in Lee's Summit since 1984. We have two grown sons who both attended Blue Springs schools.
