He was born in Youngstown Ohio. After graduating from art school in Pittsburgh, he moved to Orlando Florida and fulfilled a lifelong dream of becoming an artist at Disney. Jim contributed over 8 years of designs to their retail division. He's since moved back to his hometown to live and raise his beautiful daughter. For Jim, photography is a passion of sharing his version of beauty with others, needing only a light and an angle. He enjoys finding the forgotten things in life and getting them noticed. Jim considers himself a real person, down to earth, and hopes others that follow his work see that in his vision. He brings the feeling and movement of each situation into his photographs. Jim feels that photography can inspire the uninspired and help the lost find their way. He's living proof of that. Enjoy!
