studio in Tribeca. Still goes back to Japan each summer with his family to shoot personal work.

sights and sounds that take you out of your comfort zone. Thinks "unannounced moments often
make for the best photos." Todd keeps busy in his free time by playing tennis and camping.

From his bio: "I am not the guy that will show up for your shoot in leather pants and a tank top.
I am not the guy that will ‘blow a gasket’ if I don’t get my half-caf, soy latte with ice… I’m the guy
that will get people comfortable in front of my camera, and have fun doing it." Well played, sir.

A natural athlete himself. Sort of a requirement for all of the climbing, jumping and dangling
that he’s involved with. When on assignment abroad, he loves eating from the street vendors.
Especially the omelettes in Kathmandu. Enjoys shooting in locations that make you say "Wow."
