Photographer, artist, and wholly human
My work is deeply personal and allows me to better define myself and my relationship with nature. I hope my pieces can bring you closer to Mother Earth and exploring all she has to offer us.
I have always had a special connection with birds and it was the desire to capture their unique lives to share with others that inspired me to pick up my first camera. The lens has added a new appreciation for the majesty and playfulness of these amazing creatures. Each picture is a moment frozen in time reflecting a real relationship between me and my subject.
I am particularly enchanted by urban raptors whose territories are diminishing under the reckless expansion of development. The charming families of burrowing owls you see in my photographs are my neighbors. I fight to keep their homes protected and draw attention to them on Facebook, through blogging, and petitioning the city to preserve them.
I hope each picture you see in my shop opens a window into the lives of these magnificent animals. I am lost in the stories they tell me as we communicate through my lens and my dream is that they touch your heart as they do mine.
"Nature always wears the colors of the spirit."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
