Fine art Pacific Northwest Landscape Photography
A photograph is a powerful thing and as a photographer the ultimate goal is to bring life, to evoke emotion and to initiate a spark; a spark that can flourish even in the darkest of times. Each and every exposure has meaning, be it symbolic, raw or natural. My goal is to create imagery that resonates with the viewer and inspires them. That being said I think it’s important to understand the impact that photographs can have. It’s important that photographers, and the visitors that they inspire, take care of the lands that we are so passionate about through sustainable photographic principles. I work hard to ensure that the places that I photograph will be there for future generations to enjoy, and I encourage everyone whom visits these areas to do the same.
Landscapes are in a constant ebb and flow, be it from naturally occurring events, or human impact. My number one goal is to take the human element out of the equation. Sustainable landscape photography principles and leave no trace practices are the cornerstone to my teaching methods and my thoughts on moving the field forward in positive direction. Our connection with nature couldn’t be more important than it is now, and my hope is that these photographs inspire others to learn, explore and to respect the lands that we are lucky enough to call home.
