About
<p>I am one of the original Digital Hybrids because I was a professional photographer in the early 80’s shooting only film.
After 6 years in Rochester, NY I closed my studio and move to NYC. I was primarily a photographer then but when got to NYC I had make available my others skills as a darkroom technician. At the time I was Fine Art custom B&W printer. Also mixing chemistry for E6 and B&W negatives.I've been employed by some of the top photographic labs such as Duggal , Modernage, Arista. Eventually I moved into digital I was a department manager and technician scanning operator. The scanner I used was a high-end drum scanner Linocolor Hell 3400. A natural progression from there was retouching and color correcting files which is what I’ve doing the last 18 years. Focusing my retouching work mostly in the advertising field I eventually move into the Recording Industry. For the last 7 years I have been employed by Universal Motown and island Def Jam. Retouching a large part of there A list clientele. I have since moved onto other things now which is to freelance as a retoucher and concentrate on my digital photography.</p>
