It all began back in the 1990s when my Dad, a professional photographer, showed me how to operate a camera. Ever since then the camera and I have been inseparable. Being that my grandfather and father were professional photographers and photography was always discussed at the kitchen table, it was a natural part of my life at an early age. I started my professional career as a photographer in 1997 with the Press Corps at the Department of Defense for about two years. Then, in 1999, my Dad and I opened our own studio. Over 20 years later, we are still at it, communicating though pictures.
