On December 10, 1982 I graduated from Brooks Institute of Photography, in Santa Barbara, California. At 22 I knew I wasn’t ready to set-up my own studio, so I headed to Los Angeles, to find a job as an assistant for awhile. Best thing I’ve ever done! I ended up working for more than 30 different photographers, and this truely finished my education. From car shooters, to fashion photographers, to movie studios I got to see it all. After two years, in October of 1985, I opened my own studio at 1501 South La Brea. At that time, I never thought that I’d get a chance to live in Thailand, much less make my own coffee table book about it.

Welcome to EdWorld
After being off the web for nearly two years, I’m back. While busy in my travels, I let my domaine name expire, and some jackass bought it and held it for ransom. The lowlife didn’t have anything to do with my business or family, just a punk locking for a nickle.
During this time, I’ve been working on an art/travel picture book about Thailand. I’m 70% finished with the shooting part and I’m working on laying it out, captioning and editing images. No small task, as our travels took us to almost all of the 77 provinces, and I’ve ended up with over 10,000 images. I slipped about two months ago and broke my ankle in two places, or the book would have been out for the new year. As it is, I’ve extended the release to the Thai New Year in April.
In the coming days, I’ll post some photos and movies from our travels and update the site as often as I can.
Thanks for visiting!
