Street Photography is the art of being able to capture unplanned, interesting moments-in-time as they occur spontaneously in public spaces. In my opinion, the subject, composition, light and the story I'm trying to tell is way more important than image quality.

Using techniques I've gathered over the past 40 years, a small camera and wide-angle lens enable me to get nice and close to my subjects. The advantage of the wide-angle lens is to give the viewer a sense of being there in the moment. When I hit the streets I have no preconceptions, my process is based on seeing and reacting.

I was born somewhere and then grew up. After graduating art school in the mid 80’s I packed up my camera, two lenses, a handful of film and hit the road. I spent 12 years traveling throughout America in all 50 states. On this side of the pond, my two favorite backdrops for street photography are New York City and New Orleans. If I had to choose worldwide, hands down, it would be Havana (Cuba) and Paris.
