Before long after working in that field, he realized his creative side was not satisfied with the work, and he decided to begin a woodworking business while also pursuing photography simultaneously.

He learned exactly how fun, exciting, fulfilling, and passionate he was about taking pictures of animals that lived underwater. This is the initial spark that led us to the piece we are discussing today.

Through these escapades, he has graced the world with some rather unique photos of different types of animals in various oceanic environments. This type of photography quickly made him very popular in and around his home town. It did not take long before the public that surrounded began to demand more than simple photos.


Eventually, along with the help of different members of the community, he was able to launch his first gallery.
