Year-Round Exhibit at 223 Church St, Burlington

I entertain new photographic prospects daily from my workshop/gallery paradise in downtown Burlington, VT. I travel light and photograph endlessly. During the past ten years, over 3000 of my photographs have been published in various media. My work has also been featured in over 50 gallery exhibits. I am ripe for book deals and international exhibits. Contact me quickly.
