At the age of 15 James received a camera and began shooting anything he could find, from friends to bugs, houses to garbage, everything became a story. James attended Liverpool High School where he pursued learning the camera in his free time, his parents quickly realized James's talent and supported James's wants to pursue film in college. Attending OCC, James graduated and earned his Associates in Electronic Media Communications. With the approval of his peers and teachers James then went to SUNY Fredonia to get his Bachelors degree in Communication of Applied Science.

Inspired by the search for love and the passion of dreaming for what you really want to do, James found his niche.
