Master of Photography · Digital since 1995

Reinventing photography for the AI era.

I have been a professional photographer for 47 years and a Master of Photography for 40. In 1995 I became one of the first digital portrait photographers in the world. Now I build the AI tools that come next, for photographers, businesses and anyone with a camera in their pocket.

The tools

Made in my AI workshop.

Each tool gets its own sales page, and an App Store or Google Play link as soon as it is available.

In development

Retoucher

Tag a whole shoot from blemish removal to heavy retouching, then retouch one picture or thousands. Your originals stay untouched.

The story

From my father's camera in 1970 to the AI studio.

My father, an Air Force photographer, handed me one of his professional cameras when I was eleven. I opened my own studio in Omaha in 1985, earned my Master of Photography and Photographic Craftsman degrees, built an 8,000-square-foot studio in 1992, and in 1995 took it from film to digital. Kodak then sent me to teach studios in more than 35 states, Canada and Mexico how to make the same move.
