Journeys Through Photography

 
 


Art is my passion! I use the world as my canvas with my camera as my medium. I love to explore and when I shoot, I lose myself in the moment and the intricacies of the scene. My images are primarily landscapes, with people as parts of the composition, not the focus.


I shoot to create and share my vision. Often painterly, impressionistic, and

dreamy, I strive to bring beauty to life.  But beauty is in unexpected

places!  I am also fascinated with all aspects of the urban landscape and

the rebirth that follows decay and dilapidation.


Above all, I am drawn to water- the ocean, waterfalls, streams, lakes. I

love to study its motion and calm- capturing its intricacies in camera-

slow, fast, torrid, or peaceful- conveying its power and the peace it brings

to me.
