As a fine art photographer (who caught the photography passion while practicing litigation and corporate law), I have spent 20 years creating images more about form than subject matter though in some projects, as the SF Essentials project that includes the images submitted here, I have a documentary purpose as well. I am most satisfied when my work includes what I think of while photoshooting as form plus soul. I have been influenced most by paintings of late 20th Century contemporary artists. I am a member of Camera Cabal, a salon group of 11 Bay Area photographers.
