I have been providing wine caves photographic imagery to a variety of clients, from collectors of fine prints, to art directors, photo editors, creative designers, and grant coordinators since 1980.
These pages offer a glimpse of what I do. If you are considering a project, have a story to tell, need wall prints, or a portrait please e-mail.
A large portion of my portfolio focuses on wine caves and the wine industry of California, particularly in the counties of: Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, Placer, Nevada, Napa, Sonoma, and Mendocino.
The book, The Romance of California Vineyards, Universe Publish ing 1997, authored by Carissa Chappellet, with an introduction by Molly Chappellet, showcases my wine work exclusively.
Since 1996, I have been chronicling the proliferation of wine caves occuring in the hills of California. To get a glimpse into this fascinating world click into Wine Caves.
For those with interests other than wine, my Gallery page offers a portal to contemplative spaces.
My Mono Lake portfolio dates from 1980, with image publication credits in National Geographic’s, The World’s Wild Lands, 1993 wall calendar, a number of Mono Lake Committee calendars, and Storm Over Mono, by John Hart, University of California Press 1996.I have been photographing agricultural subjects and gardens for over twenty years.

It was featured in two table top books: A Vineyard Garden, By Molly Chappellet , Viking Books 1991, and Gardens of the Wine Country, by Molly Chappellet & Dick Tracy, Chronicle Books, 1998.
I have just hung out the shingle to do portraits in my local community and have begun a project to document the diverse cultural representation that is assembled in the north valley region known as Yuba/Sutter.
