ABOUT SONNY
My love for photography has taken many forms since I was young boy.
I began by using a simple Kodak camera loaded with black and white film shooting scenes around my backyard in Connecticut. I was in elementary school at the time and since then I have always found anything involving photography to be very exciting.
Over the years I have explored many interesting photographic subjects and techniques. Fortunately, I was able to discover early on how useful it was to study the rich photographic history that has been explained and illustrated by masters of the craft. The passion and artistry evidenced in their work has always been very inspiring to me.
My goal is always to use that inspiration to share my own excitement and passion about subjects to you as you experience my photographs. I hope you enjoy my work.
Photography has become even more meaningful to me as a source of joy and independence since being diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease nearly 20 years ago.
Parkinson’s Disease affects nearly 5 million people worldwide and is a neurodegenerative condition which currently has no cure. I support The Michael J Fox foundation for Parkinson’s Research because it continues to lead the world by choosing the best places to fund the research that absolutely must be done. Their bold scientific quest has so far yielded many new therapies to address symptoms and have more yet to come that are already in development pipelines. According to the MJFF, the goal of finding a cure for Parkinson’s disease will always remain as their primary task. To date the Fox Foundation has funded more than 1.5 billion dollars in clinical research around the world!
