  Ulf Askenas Studio

  Jan 1978 - Jan 1979

  Photo Assistant

  I worked at Ulf Askenas Studio, part time while I was going to school at Ray Vogue. My duties were assisting photographers, checking in merchandise, developing film and pretty much anything they could think of. I left there when I graduated, because they didn't have enough work to put me on full time.

  Nugent Wenkus

  Jan 1979 - Jan 1980

  Photo Assistant

  While I was at Nugent Wenkus, I was a photo assistant. I worked closely with two photographers. My duties ran the full spectrum of assisting those photographers. I was laid-off due to a lack of work.

  ETM Studios Inc.

  Jan 1980 - Jan 1996

  Photo Assistant / Lab Tech. - Sr. Photographer

  When I started with ETM Studios I was a photo assistant and their lab technician. I would run all film and maintain their E-6 and B&W Hope roller transport systems. I would start my day cleaning and maintaining the processers, running control strips to maintain a smooth color balance. When this was achieved, I then would assist the photographers helping anyone who needed it. I quickly moved up to junior photographer and was shooting my own tool layouts. I kept on moving up to become one of their best photographers. In 1996 I left ETM to open up my own business. Show less

  I started D& D Maintenance to be a sub-contractor. I primarily worked for Royal Builders. My first major project with them was a twelve thousand square foot house in Fox Glen. Where I worked on anything from laboring, setting steel, rough and finish carpentry. I worked on that house from start to finish. I also took on my own projects, decks, demo, plumbing, electrical, door and window replacement, painting and general handyman services.
