Photography experience

Thanks for considering me to shoot your headshot. I’ve been involved in extras casting in New Mexico since 2005, and I have more than 20 years’ experience as a professional photographer. The two complement each other well. My background in professional photography goes back to 1989. I spent several years working as a staff photographer at a newspaper in the lovely Texas Panhandle. News photography taught me to problem solve on the fly and to work fast. News happens in the blink of an eye and as a photojournalist you have to be ready to capture it. While working at the newspaper I used a now-archaic relic called film. Lots of Tri-X, a little Plus-X, lots of Fuji Velvia and lastly; rolls and rolls of glorious T-Max P3200. More recently, I was a studio photographer working almost exclusively on a 4 x 5 view camera shooting jewelry and related products for a local supply company. I shot thousands and thousands of pictures of jump rings and thumb screws and polishing cloths. It taught me to light the tiniest of objects. Try making a file tang look beautiful.
