| OBJECTIVE
I have been originally Certified as a photojournalist at the New York Institute of Photography in NYC. Recently, I found that freelance photography is a little more lucrative
and you have your own set of rules. My
forte have been poeple, events, lighthouses and maritime subjects. My photos of lighthouses have been the most recognized and sought after.I work with Photoshop. As part of my business, I know how to touchup and edit
images. I may take the shots traditionally, but I process my images digitally. I am willing to relocate just about anywhere in the continental US. | | | RELOCATE CT DE DC FL GA HI ID IL IN IA KS KY LA ME MD MA MI MN MS MO MT NE NV NH NJ NM NY NC |

Degree: | Photojournalism Certificate | Start date: | 11/1/96 | Graduation: | 10/1/99 | Comments: | During my time at the photography school, I've learned the basics of film developing, print developing, touch up
( the old fashion way-using formulated dyes and a very fine paint brush), photo bracketing, panning, flash exposure and composition. This may have been "old school" by today's standards, but sometimes, going back to basics is a good thing. | | |
