Started as a hobby and made it into a business, I had one of the best photographic studies in the city.  Best make up artist and hairstylists, even did some work for  Givenchy in New York  because my Aunt was a head designer for Mr. Givenchy.

I even met him a few times. 

I had my own laboratory and delivered black and white prints to the Modeling agencies the next day. Unheard of in the industry at the time  which usually took three days to a week. I developed my own systems for developing  100's of rolls of films at once in 2 1/4 and 35mm.  I created  special  copy stand for reproducing  old photographs and changed them into businesses as well.

While I was doing  all of this, I always had a photographic business on the side. 

love photography  still

today.  I am a very good photographer as well.  I did mostly fashion and some commercial. Since the age of the digital camera, it has taken me out of the darkroom where I developed all my own films and made all my prints too.
