A Photojournalist’s Journey to Wildlife

After decades as a wire news photojournalist, I pursued my lifelong passion and transitioned into wildlife photography, combining the decisive-moment instincts of news photography with a deep respect for the natural world. I bring professional standards, storytelling expertise, and hands-on guidance to every workshop. I am a former Board Member and Vice President of the Press Photographers Association of Greater Los Angeles, and in 2020, I was awarded a Fellowship from The Royal Photographic Society.

The Naturalist Advantage

As a Certified Florida Master Naturalist through the University of Florida, I bring more than camera techniques to every workshop, I share deep understanding of ecosystems, animal behavior, and habitat dynamics.
