 Who Am I?

I'm a part-time photographer. I have a day job in web technology but I have a passion for capturing textures, colors, lines, and emotions with a camera. Light and detail fascinate me and I am always trying to see how to capture what I see.

 What do I shoot?

I shoot almost everything and anything I see, but I have a particular fondness for flowers and nature. I live a busy life and macrophotography is very accessible and fits into my schedule. My second love is working with people and I especially love capturing images of people that convey who they are, whether it be in a portrait or at an event.  

More recently, I have been shooting birds and other animals. I kayak a great deal and have captured wonderful images of eagles, herons, and turtles.

I mainly shoot with Nikon cameras and lenses, although I am do a bit of shooting lately with a Fujifilm X-T4. My work is now all digital but I still believe that the most important part of photography is the vision of the artist.
