I am a photographer specializing in portraiture, I worked for two decades in the Los Angeles area in the film and music industries. I lived several years in the jungle area of the state of São Paulo, Brazil photographing nature. I have also lived and worked in Portugal, Greece, Japan and Mexico.
Some of my more recognizable entertainment subjects have included; Bob Vylan (Mobo Award recipient), Brian Wilson (Grammy Award recipient), Chuck Liddell (UFC Light Heavyweight champion), Dr. Dre (Grammy Award recipient), Eazy E (Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient), Gabriel o Pensador (Latin Grammy Award recipient), Giancarlo Esposito (Critics' Choice Award recipient), Ice Cube (BET Comedy Award recipient), Marlee Matlin (Oscar recipient), NWA (Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees), Scott Weiland (Grammy Award recipient), Sheryl Lee Ralph (Emmy recipient) Takashi Murakami (world-renowned contemporary artist)and Teddy Riley (2x Grammy winner).
I sometimes make my images accessible to be used on Wikipedia pages. The below list are examples of some of my photographs that I have uploaded to the Wikimedia project.
