Artist Bio

My journey into photographing toys began in the late 90's. I always had a passion for taking pictures, but never had the proper equipment. For my first project, armed with my disposable Kodak 35 mm camera, I decided to stage Barbie's Christmas party. As a result, I found it fun to stage a world that did not exist and photograph it look as part of our every day life.

Since then, I have honed in my skills and upgraded from the wonderful world of disposable cameras to SLR. Some of my favorite topics to explore are love & dating and popular culture. Lately, I have reverted from the world of digital photography to film...instant film!

Artist Statement

Vinyl Day Dreams

Barbie and her friends are always smiling... for the most part. But what are they smiling about? This new series explores their deepest thoughts to expose what is truly behind those vinyl expressions. All the images are multiple exposures photographed on Polaroid film!
