Bob has been a photographer over 25 years. He started with a Pentax K1000 using black & white film that he processed and printed himself in his own darkroom. He dabbled in color printing but that proved to be more labor intensive and costly than he had thought. In 2000, Bob switched to digital when he got an Olympus C-2020Z. In 2003 He got a Canon Digital SLR and his
interest in photography was reborn. Over the last five years, he has been refining his craft with the experience of the past and the knowledge of the digital format. He primarily works in the studio doing portraits, still life and macro work although his real love is out in the field shooting wildlife. Bob currently uses a Canon 1D Mark II Digital SLR as his only camera body with a variety of lenses.

Bob is an active duty Coast Guard Officer and is currently stationed in Martinsburg, WV. Bob is married to his wife Jill and has two children, Andrew 12 and Heather 10.
