WORKSHOPS & CONSULTING

I regularly speak at workshops. My workshop topics vary from camera basics to sports photography tips, to career-focused workshops. I am happy to conduct workshops for photographers, camera reps, creative teams, and one-on-one training. I also offer consulting services for organizations looking to optimize their photography both visually and technically.

I am honored to have had my work featured in national exhibits such as the Smithsonian Institute - National Museum of the American Indian exhibit "Best in the World: Native Athletes in the Olympics" and local exhibits such as Lehrhaus Judaica's Building Jewish Bridges "This is Bay Area Jewry" celebrating the diversity of interfaith families.

 


 

I was previously part of the Olympus ambassador program as an Olympus Visionary. After being sold and rebranded to OM Digital solutions, I no longer regularly use Olympus/OMDS gear. For size, weight, and weather-sealing, I still believe micro-four-thirds is the best sensor format for most photography enthusiasts.

GEAR

Cameras are so capable today and there are many entry level options for cameras, lenses, lighting that can get the job done. I prioritize gear that is efficient and reliable.
