About Me
I was born in Phoenix Arizona and moved to Missouri when I was 2 years old with my parents of course. I have lived in Springfield Missouri for most of my life, I went to Pershing and then Kickapoo High School and graduated in 1991. I then continued my education with a degree in Business/Computer Information Systems from Missouri State University. Go Bears!!
At the end of college I met and later married a beautiful girl name Mandy Tonche and we have two awesome children one girl named Paige and one boy named Trevor, our house is always full of kids my wife loves to be surrounded by them.
Around 1999 I started a company named Usedrouter.com Inc and I have been doing that now for around 10 years. I have several great employees and the success of this company has given me more free time to mess around with other hobbies. My main hobby at this time is Photography. About 6-7 years ago I began to take an interest in photography, I have taken somewhere in the neighborhood of 200,000 pictures. Over the years I have begun to fine tune my skills in nature, landscapes, macro, portraits, and more. I really enjoy doing this on the side its something I hope to do in a more professional way in the near future, I am constantly striving to improve and looking for more information and experience to learn all that I can.
I am located in Springfield Missouri, and I can photograph in the metro area of Springfield and up to 30-50 miles away. I have a studio here in Springfield Missouri it's located at 5335 S Campbell Ave Suite B. You can reach me at 417-860-6703 to book a session. Or you can email me at benzo007@mchsi.com
Most of my photo session are done on nights and weekends because I still have to run my company during the day. But if there is something really important you need me to do during the day I can always make exceptions.
