Dear Friends, Clients, and Colleagues,
After more than 40+ wonderful years of running my photography business, I want to share with you that I have decided to retire from professional photography. This decision comes with a full heart, deep gratitude, and great anticipation for the next chapter of my life.
Photography has been more than just a career—it has been a calling. I’ve had the incredible honor of capturing weddings, family milestones, high school senior events, and everyday moments that tell stories far beyond the frame. Thank you for trusting me with those memories. Your smiles, tears, laughter, and quiet glances have become a part of my own journey, and I will carry those images in my heart forever.
But as the seasons of life change, so do the callings on our lives. Two years ago, after the passing of my dear wife Terri, I found myself on a deeper spiritual journey that led me to give my life to Jesus Christ. Since then, God has opened doors for me to serve in ministry—helping flood victims on mission trips, volunteering at homeless shelters, nursing homes, and feeding centers. These opportunities have awakened a new purpose in me, one that feels like the natural next step in this season of life.
Though I am setting down the camera professionally, I am not stepping away from storytelling, service, or people. I hope to continue using God's gifts—just in new ways- to bring light, encouragement, and hope to those in need.
Thank you again for your support, friendships, and memories over the years. If I’ve photographed your wedding, your children, your family, or your business, please know how deeply I’ve appreciated being a small part of your lives.
I’m stepping forward with peace, trusting that God isn’t finished with me yet. I look forward to what He has planned.
With heartfelt gratitude!
