“A photograph, whilst recording what has been seen, always and by its nature refers to what is not seen. “
--John Berger
Photography and wine have been long term passions for me. I have worked in wine and food production, earned a degree in enology from UC Davis and traveled the world capturing the look, vibe and mood of people, their culture and their ever changing environments. Now I have turned my attention to wine product and hospitality photography.
Working in every aspect of Napa Valley wine making, I have encountered the legendary snakes hidden in the old head vines, the cold of a stainless steel ball valve at 5AM, and red wine pour without getting a drop onto the white pants of guests,
My goal is to capture the look, the vibe and the mood of the brand messaging. A memorable image provides a hint to what is not seen and entices the observer to linger over the tasting experience.
