About

Rick definitely has come full circle; after working as a commercial/industrial photographer he now teaches and conducts Photoshop classes, Digital photography workshops and lead Photo EdVenture tours for Seattle Central College.

It was his first experience while watching an image magically appear on a blank sheet of photo paper, and capturing that one special moment in time to share with others, that lead him into the field of photography.

After working in the imaging industry for the last 30 years as a studio owner, industrial photographer, freelancer, fashion photographer, event photographer, film producer, multimedia producer and a fine arts artist. Rick has changed his focus to teaching, traveling, and enjoying the outdoors.
