Why do I make photographs?

Because life happens quickly.

Days often seem like an eternity, but years slip by fast. Tomorrow everyone will be older and everything will be different.

But photos have a remarkable way of not only reminding us of a moment, they bring back from the murkiness entire swaths of time, adding faces and expressions and emotions to shadowy shapes. 

Need something? Please ask. If I was at event, chances are I have many more photos.
