This section is currently under construction. I would like to thanks several people for whom this site could not be possible. Forever my better half in life, Michelle. Without her understanding and patience my roaddog days would be over. Another person of importance, Butch Worrel whom I met in Ventura CA February 2007 at a Ratdog show. I always appreciated the quality of Butch's photography but after talking with him i was hooked. Without him knowing it, he greatly influenced me to become a better photographer. The next two, I affectionately refer to as the twin towers, the Lewno Brothers. Jeff, aka "LoonyJ" Lewno and I met first at a Ratdog show in Cleveland OH and the folowing night in Columbus OH in 2007. I will forever remember him clearing the rail so "the photgrapher can get some good shoots." After forwarding Pics of the shows to him and a few others bands he sent me an e-mail. saying i shoot like his brother and I should contact him. So my relationship with Mark began. I also would graciously thank a person who took a leap of faith with an unknown photgrapher, Dennis McNally. Dennis granted me the priveledge to shoot my first concert which was Ratdog at CMAC in 2008. Which leads me back to Mark. After exchanging e-mails with Mark we finally got together in 2008 at CMAC for the Ratdog & Allman Brothers show. Mark and I hit it off and had a wonderful time to say the least. Right around fall of 2008, Mark contacted regading a website he was creating called Phumes.net and wanted to know if I was interested in shooting for the site. By December the site was up and running. Meanwhile, we were preparing for Jackie Greene, Ratdog, Phil & Friends New Year Eve Shows in San Francisico.
