Photography My love for photography began my senior year in High School where I worked on the year book staff in the darkroom and as a photographer. Later, I attended Antonelli School of Photography in Philadelphia and studied Graphic Design at the Philadelphia Art Institute. I learned all aspects of commercial photography, from still life table top photography, to portraiture, weddings, sports and everything in between. Since that early experience, I have honed my skills and moved into the digital world. My photography equipment includes an Olympus E-500 Digital SLR with an assortment of Olympus lenses; 14 - 45 zoom lens, 40 -150 zoom lens 35mm Macro, 70 - 300 zoom lens and a 50 to 200 zoom lens. I also have an Olympus Stylus 790 weather proof camera for those bad weather days. Graphic Design Although I started out in the analog world of design with a straight edge and a blade for paste up, I have made the move into the digital world. I am well versed in the Adobe family of design software, from Illustrator to Photoshop and InDesign. Specializing in travel related projects, I can produce full color brochures, direct mail campaigns, email blasts, business cards, stationary and logo design. Writing My experience as a writer began during my printing career. I authored numerous articles for such publications as Instant & Small Commercial Printing, American Printer and various trade publications. I am now broadening my horizons to include fishing and travel related publications, web sites and brochures. Web Design Web design is a natural extension of my background in graphic design. A web site is nothing more than an electronic brochure. The aesthetics, photography and writing all compliment a well designed web site. To effectively provide a web presence you must also provide proper search engine experience and constant updates. I can provide all these services and more.
