Seeking to understand the motivations behind people’s behavior he originally was a psychology student at The University of Illinois at Chicago. Around this time David began using photography as a means to further explore his curiosity in regards to human behavior. Having ended his studies at UIC, David briefly transferred to Columbia College but ultimately found that real world trial and error would be the best way for him to hone his craft and find his voice. David’s work primarily focuses on candid portraiture; he seeks to honestly capture his subject while still respecting their personal space and private moments.
