This article appears to be an autobiography about a photographer that lacks coverage in reliable sources writing about him to establish notability. He is certainly an accomplished working professional photographer with photo credits in major magazines. See [1] for one such example. However, I can find no coverage about him. Assertions about exhibitions are not backed up with any specifics, and I was not able to dig up anything in my searches. Whpq (talk) 14:44, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as article fails notability criteria for photographers. Armbrust ^Talk _Contribs 19:00, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Agree that doesn't appear to meet WP:CREATIVE, similarly there's no non-trivial coverage of the photographer (e.g., ignoring photo credits, etc.) that would reach the general notability guideline. (A pity, b/c I like his work.) --j⚛e decker ^talk 01:12, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
