Philosophy behind Photography
This is I suppose part 3 of the segment, “What makes me different as a photographer?”
Here are segments 1 and 2 for reference.
Because any bum with a camera can call himself a “photographer”. What sets me apart is vision and personality.

Here’s an a “vision” with two otherwise random household objects
My philosophy behind photography is that you can search the world but the most incredible images are right here, right now… waiting to be captured. You don’t have to go to another continent to see the magic that lies right in front of your nose. Everyday life is magical. The question is can you see it? I can. And I want to show you.
Photography’s like life. The truth is, you already have everything that you already need. You just need a different perspective to see the magic that lies before your eyes…

This is a kitchen funnel!
I provide that “different perspective”.
And when it counts, when it REALLY counts… can those other bums with cameras capture those moments? Those fleeting moments that can not be duplicated? Who will you trust when it comes down to that one moment in time?

Hummingbirds come in 15 minute cycles and stay for only for seconds…
You need the inspiration of an artist fused with the discipline of a executive. Having my MBA makes me dependable and calculating. The bottom line is: There are no excuses for missed shots. A photographer must ALWAYS be prepared. Combine this with a long history of customer service and you have a easygoing “people-person” photographer that is super easy to work and as dependable as a pacemaker.
Not a bad sales pitch LOL!
