About me

I have been a professional photographer in the entertainment industry since 1982, I started by shooting W.A.S.P, London, LA Guns and Hollywood Rose. When the latter became Guns N' Roses, I worked with them and became their exclusive photographer when the band was signed to Geffen Records.
My list of clients spans the 1980s, 1990s and today, including Guns N' Roses, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, Elton John, Backstreet Boys, Rolling Stones, The Cult, Aerosmith, Jane's Addiction, Faith No More, Marilyn Manson, Motörhead, and Sepultura, as well as many models and actors in entertainment (eg. William Shatner, Power Rangers, Christina Applegate, Leah Cevoli, Susie Owens).

I try capturing the emotion of rock n' roll in my images and artwork. I developed my own techniques and style that uses light, shadows, grain and contrast.
My photography and artwork can be seen on numerous album covers and liners, and has graced the covers and pages of domestic and international magazines including Rolling Stone, Rip, Kerrang, Spin, AP, Revolver, HITS, Guitar World, Hamilton This Month, Guitarist, Hard Rock, Raw, Music Life, Hard Break, In Rock, Popgear, Suosikki, Grindhouse, Terrorizer, Metal Edge, Metal Hammer, and many more.

I have worked with many record labels including Geffen, Sony BMG, Universal, Warner Brothers, Interscope, Atlantic, Virgin, Island, Capitol, Columbia, RCA, Electra, EMI, SPV, Century Media, Metal Blade, etc.
My most recent video projects include video footage for Motörhead's Stage Fright DVD, live video footage for Sepultura, and promo videos for Class Of Zero, Murder Room, and Jack Dill and Ooze's Cootie Pool.

GNR Book

I authored one book entitled Guns N' Roses: The Photographic History, which chronicled the band from its punk Hollywood roots to its extravagant worldwide pinnacle.

Twisted South Magazine

I'm staff photographer for Twisted South Magazine -

"Inspired and offbeat, Twisted South is a lifestyle magazine like no other. It showcases aspects of the South rarely addressed in mainstream media, like midget wrestling, coon dog cemeteries, Southern goth lingerie, and proper crawfish eating etiquette. Prominent themes are life in New Orleans, Gothic style, indie musicians, and restaurants, but Twisted South also features recipes and book and music reviews.
