UNDER CONSTRUCTION Outdoor Images

About our Photography

We use only the best equipment for our photography. We know that it starts with a great image and then using great materials, we can provide you with museum quality fine art that will last for over 100 years. Below we describe our equipment. See About Our Art to learn more about the framing process and what museum quality means.

About My Equipment

I use only the best equipment and methods for my photography.  A photograph starts with the lens and ends with the paper it's printed on.  I use the Leica M System consisting of a Leica M-4 and a Leica M-6 TTL. These camera bodies are German made and solid mechanical construction which gives me the ability to take pictures in extreme conditions without compromising the equipment. In fact, the Leica M-4 was used to take much of the photo journalism in the last century in the United States and abroad.

I also use nothing but Leica lenses not only because of the durability like the camera bodies, but because of the meticulous detail used to perfect the operation of the lenses. Leica lenses have been refined over and over using more advanced techniques each time. The lenses strive, more than any other lens manufacturer, to produce an image free from errors, or in photographic lingo, aberrations. Leica lenses have sharper pictures as a result. Images taken against a backlight are crisp because there is no lens flare. Images taken of dark subjects against light subjects are crisp because the colors focus to the same point rather than different places causing blurr. I could go on and on, but there have been books written just about Leica lenses and the physics behind them. If you can't tell by now, I started my college career as a physics major and I find all this science facinating. I hope the results facinate you.
