Illuminating Studios was established in July 2006 when Woodville Plantation accepted my website proposal. Though work has never ceased, the launch of our own website was delayed by the significant extention of work on the Chartres: Cathedral of Notre-Dame site.

I have been working in website design and development for three years, and have over 20 years' photographic experience. Much of the former has been on the Chartres site, with the latter covering the gamut of catagories listed in our letter head. I also bring many years of graphic design work, as well as extensive research in many different fields to any current and future projects Illuminating Studios is called on to complete or contribute to. Experienced associates can be brought in to collaborate or assist in larger sites and projects, as needed.

The following video clip was produced by Tom Mayor of The Message Shop for the Resources screen of an educational DVD I was to contribute to, and shows some of the architectural work I produced at Chartres Cathedral. The final image of me was taken at Calvary Episcopal Church, Pittsburgh, PA.
