Photographing familiar places and traditional landscapes in an innovative and distinctive way inspires me to continue to grow as an artist. I enjoy finding beauty in the ordinary, and in sharing a connection with people I’ve never met through my work.
My intention is to use High Dynamic Range and Infrared photography to capture dramatic images that cannot be captured by a traditional camera.
My father was the first person to put a camera in my hands and allow me the freedom to create images on my own. As I started my education in photography, I was greatly influenced by the works of Ansel Adams and Robert Frank. Ansel Adams’ breathtaking landscapes and Robert Frank’s ability to document everyday life in such a unique and fascinating way prompted me to find my own creative perspective behind the camera.
I rediscovered my love of photography after receiving a kidney transplant in 2006. My second chance at life has renewed my inspiration and interest in photography. Today, I look to photograph the beauty in places and objects that I might have taken for granted in the past. I hope that these photographs inspire others to follow their own passions in life.
