Many have asked me what equipment I use and what my photographic processes are. I use different formats of camera, both film and digital. I do not endorse any particular brands. A capable photographer can make a great photograph with any of them.

As far as my printing process goes, this I can be clear on. I want you to have the best print I can give you; therefore I do not make inkjet prints. Market analyst learned quickly that calling inkjets "Giclée, " makes them sound more appealing for sales. They simply are spray photos. Ink is sprayed onto specially prepared paper resulting in a simulated photograph. They can and do look quite good for what they are, and I have no problem with this technology if it makes a better print (I am for whatever makes you feel as if you are really there), however I feel inkjets fall short. Other photographers may disagree with me, however as artist we all have our likes and dislikes. There are no real rules as artist and we gravitate to what appeals to us and know what does not. enough said.

I offer 2 distinct types of printed exposed images. First, my "usual" photographs are printed on traditional Type C photographic paper or Silver Gelatin prints which are exposed to light, no inks are sprayed on them regardless whether the image source is a negative, slide, or digital file. In my opinion, Type C photographs have a longevity, depth, chatoyance, and radiance spray photos cannot match.

For the ultimate Black and White photographs from me, I also offer hand printed Silver Gelatin prints in addition to the prints available through my standard pricing and check-out pages. Please contact me for a quote on these prints.

The second type is a new technology: Metal prints. Dyes associated with the light source are fused directly into specially UV - coated aluminum sheets, which are true archival works of art. This makes a highly durable, waterproof, weatherproof, and very scratch resistant image. Metal prints have a high gloss luminescence, and an incredibly detailed look and resolution. These prints are more costly, however they do not need to be matted, mounted, or framed with glass - so they are more economical in the long run. Metal prints are float mounted which gives a 3D look on your wall. You need only a nail to hang one. When the print gathers dust, you simply wipe them off. Truly stunning. You can of course frame them like a traditional photograph if you so desire.
