About Us

In my professional life, I work for the Center for Sales Strategy, Inc., a Tampa-based consulting firm that serves media, marketing, and business-to-business clients across the U.S., Canada and Australia.  In  my free time, I enjoy photography (but you already figured that out), travel, the outdoors, and matters related to conservation.

Julie is my wife of more than thirty years, and the person who makes sure I stop and take notice; people, places, and elements of the day I may have otherwise overlooked.  She shares my interest in travel and discovery.  While I started out intently focused on natural landscapes and wildlife, Julie encouraged me to let me lens wander... toward fascinating structures, the subtle lighting that bookends each day, and faces that tell stories.

We live in St. Michael, Minnesota.  We share three adult children and three amazing grandchildren.  We are blessed.  One might say that life has looked upon us... with a kind eye.
