Having a few industrial images on your web site doesn't quite make you a specialist.
Rich on the other hand is a "industrial specialist" he does nothing but hard core industry. Whether up to his knees in mud looking for the right angle in a hot humid jungle, freezing snow and ice, dry desert heat or gowning up to shoot in a super clean room, he's been there, capturing images all over the globe for some of the largest energy, engineering, construction and utility corporations in the world.
Not only does Rich understand the environment he works in, he thrives on solving the problems that sometimes come up, be it weather, logistics, time restraints, safety issues (and believe it or not) lack of client support or just having the physical ability in those sometimes harsh environments to get that special image that tells the story.
Rich also has the design sense and artificial lighting ability that comes from being a graphic designer and a studio photographer shooting advertising and collateral in the beginning of his career.
Rich lives in Southern California with his wife and two sons and is very active in sports staying in shape in order to give his clients all the energy it takes to capture the images he loves to photograph.....
