About Arnold, and Taranto Visual Arts

Each one of us is on a Journey - Each Journey is Unique.

I started my Photography Journey in my teenage years. A picture of a wooded path awoke in me the desire to capture the world through my camera. My high school Photography Club was a great place for me to start this remarkable Journey.

After receiving a degree in Visual Communications from Ocean County College, I furthered my photography studies at Hallmark Institute of Photography. I graduated with my General Photography Certification, and a Citation for Service to the Institute.

After completing school, I began practicing my Art as a Professional Photographer in the New Jersey/New York area. I jumped right into high school pictures and working as an in-home baby photographer, then settled down to become a wedding photographer. In my 12-year career in wedding photography, I photographed upwards of 70 weddings per year, with some very memorable experiences.

My journey brought me to Minnesota in 1998, where I stepped away from weddings and began focusing on creating the images you see here.
