My carpe diem image, after the demise of my dog and my mothers wisdom remembered nearly a decade later, decided to pursue my passion, Jan. 2014 went to Firenze attended two semesters at an art school SACI, non degree, to fine tune my photography learn editing and B/W photography in the darkroom. Was given the courage to share my images and have been super lucky since and now I have a wife, a child, and just so damn lucky to have followed my heart and thanks to Keno’s demise, my dog, I would never have taken that leap of faith.
