About

Photography has been an interest and passion of mine for the past 16 years, growing each year as time passes. One thing has remained the same, which is the driving motivation behind the images. Each photograph I make is a piece of work that reflects an inner part of my heart and soul. I use photography to communicate these inner feelings in an outward and visual way. Each photograph evokes within me, some sort of emotional reaction. Often times this may be feelings of sadness or loneliness which can also be accompanied by feelings of joy and happiness. The work is raw in that sense, as it’s self reflective. It is always meaningful to me when someone connects with my images, because they are so personal and revealing.

I believe that we are wired to find connection to nature. Each time I visit the outdoors, it’s a healing and renewing experience and I bring that back with me when taking on the daily and weekly tasks of life. I appreciate you taking the time to view my work and read my words.

Thank you,
