As a fine art photographer, I feel that a great photo has to start with just one thing: the ability to stop me in my tracks. To catch my breath, and hold me timeless in its grasp. To be interesting, even from a distance. To tell a story.

I strive to create great photos that express my passion for life. I like them to stand out in a crowd, and share a special light, emotion, color, detail, space, texture, or composition. And yes, each one tells a story.

Living in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, I love to capture vivid color photos and print them on canvas and metal so they pick up the crisp details and abundant colors found in nature. My series “Into the Light” features abstract and somewhat surreal images where I have painted with my camera to capture light and motion. These can look like acrylic paintings, as they convey a special balance, energy, and beauty that I hope takes your breath away.
