“I had the wonderful opportunity to work with John during a time of great development in both his photographic skill and image development and I will say that his end product is as rich and engaging as I’ve come by in a few years. He is direct, professional, talented and insightful. His demeanor with me was curious, professional, dedicated and determined. His vision is wide, somewhat emotional but stable and forward. I know John can produce wonderful images that are professional and engaging. I continue to use his work
as reference for current students I have who are pursuing a similar direction. I trust that John would be a valuable asset to most any group inquiring. My best, Kris Lattimore”

“I have been most fortunate to work alongside John within the fine art photography genre for many years and would attest to his immense ability to break many creative barriers, in his personal search for a socioeconomic exploration of the urban culture. John’s deep intellect, combined with his extensive experience with art representation, enable him to have a deep pulse into our current cultural mess, the search for our individualistic presence within a dissociated culture. John is a conceptual artist with a deep understanding of the myriads of facets that affect our brave new world, willing to explore such complex themes, unafraid to present the beauty and ugliness of our modern world to the viewer. John is effectively a voice into our disappearing sense of community and personality. Yet, his approach is most gentle, not forceful or politically motivated, but rather serving as a reminder that a loss of community and cultural roots is effectively the loss of an entire country.”
