Jim started his path in photography during his university years while working part-time as a writer and photographer at the Portsmouth Herald. Following his graduation from the University of New Hampshire with a degree in English/Journalism, Jim served as a Visual Journalism fellow at the Poynter Institute in St. Petersburg, Florida.
After the fellowship, Jim was welcomed as a photography intern at the Valley News in West Lebanon, New Hampshire. Enamored with the green mountains of Vermont and the small town community of the Connecticut River Valley, Jim remained with the Valley News for over a year. Jim then had the privilege of being part of the Concord Monitor staff as an intern during the 2004 New Hampshire primary and photographed candidates John Kerry, Howard Dean, Dick Gephardt and others behind the scenes for which the photography staff was recognized nationally. An exhibit of the staff work was displayed in downtown Concord, NH.
In addition to Jim’s work with community newspapers, he has done freelance assignments for the The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and the Associated Press.
