I started OMG Photo in 2005 as my "next career". After 3 years as a commercial diver, 15 years as a registered nurse and 10 years as a software designer I needed some outlet for my creative side. Therefore I combined my love of sports and animals with my love of photography.
For me, this is not about creating great photos as much as it is about preserving memories. Compared to us, our animals live such short lives. How long do we have with them...ten, fifteen, maybe twenty years if we are lucky? And before you know it they are gone. It is my goal to capture moments of time that you can enjoy long after your animals have gone. The horse or alpaca that provided you with so many memories should not be forgotten.
Along the way, I am working on a project called
Doing It On the Street. where I am documenting the sights and sounds of buskers (street performers) all over the world. Please take a look.
If you should see me taking pictures in your area feel free to say hello. I am one using the big white Canon lenses and usually wearing a red ball cap. Take care.
