I received my bachelor's degree in Studio Arts (photography) from Illinois State University, where I also held several shows of my work. I've done many different professional photography jobs, from sports photojournalism to product photography, as well as working on my own art photography, for the past few years.
I have experience in darkroom techniques as well as digital photography. I even have my own darkroom in my basement.
I love the idea of teaching photography to a student who is really passionate about the craft. I loved being inspired by my own teachers, and hope to help someone because inspired as well.
I would love to not only teach a student about photography, but collaborate with them as well. All creative minds are equal, and creating with someone else is a great experience.
