I am a San Francisco Bay Area-based photographer. As the title of this website suggests, I prefer to shoot wide open, at full aperture. I primarily work with Leica M-mount cameras.

Most of my published photographs fall into the loosely defined category of 'street photography'. I normally dislike using the term, however, I found a definition written by the London Street Photography Festival that to me best describes the genre:

"un-staged photography which captures, explores or questions contemporary society and the relationships between individuals and their surroundings."

If you have a book or project that requires photographic content, please feel free to contact me. I am interested in collaborative and/or documentary projects that would be suited to my photographic style.
