Photography – San Jose

My passion for photography started since high school. I love to see both the black and white and color photographs, including glamour, magazines and movie stars of the 1930’s, 40’s, 50’s and 60’s. I have enjoyed landscaping photography from well-known artists from Ron Shepard to Ansel Adams. I started pursuing my photography career 3 years ago. I have taken training courses on studio lighting, studio modelling and landscaping; however, most of my training has come from reading diverse books on photography. I love capturing the natural moments of people walking in the street, at the beach, playing music or enjoying life at a sunset. I also enjoy taking photographs of nature, from the forest to the sea, from sunrise to sunsets, from animals to flowers. I am a strong critic of my work as I know that I can improve every time, and I look forward to a constant evolution of my art.
