S3Photo / About

The photographer

I've been making photographs for over twenty years — first as a student of fine art, then as a working photographer across commercial, nonprofit, and academic work, and always as someone for whom the image begins as an idea before it becomes a frame.

My background in drawing and painting means I think about photographs the way a visual thinker does: composition, light, the relationship between what's inside the frame and what isn't. The camera is a tool, not a destination.

S3Photo is the business side of that practice. The work ranges from portraits to commercial assignments to personal fine art series — all of it made with the same set of eyes.

What I do

Twenty years of work across a range of clients and contexts. Below is an honest accounting of where I work best.

Portraits
Individual, family, and executive portraiture. Environmental sessions that place people in meaningful context rather than against a backdrop. I'm interested in likeness and presence, not just a good pose.On-location preferred
Commercial
Brand, product, and editorial photography for businesses, nonprofits, and academic institutions.Commercial licensing available
Events
Documentary coverage of events, conferences, openings, and gatherings. Unobtrusive, observational.
Fine Art Prints
Archival-quality prints from personal and selected commissioned work.Inquiry only
