Benchmark Studios is 50 years old. From its beginnings as a simple photo studio in downtown Anaheim.

Graphics, brochures, ads, websites, videos.

Art Institute invited me to talk about my 45 years in business and the changes that occurred during that time. Most attendees were students of photography and film, as well as instructors.
