About me

 Photography can be taken literally and not so literally. Literally speaking, photography is a document, now used more often to state, "I am here," "I exist," "Be apart of my life," "know who I am." And if you don't know how to take a picture, it's considered unusual. Not so literally speaking, photography is a magical box, which captures light and you can do whatever you please with your captured light.

​

When I hold my camera to my face and look through the glass to see my subject gazing back at me, the world around me goes silent, and from the moment I start my set of images, to the moment I've finished editing them, I feel free. I've created something. I've grown as an artist. And that is my accomplishment.

​

For the future - I hope I will have managed to make, support or assist in the changes we are desperate to see.  I hope the success can be measured over years and decades to come….  I hope in 10 years we still have the animals that are so critically endanger.

 

For the now - I love the restless race of your heart as a journey begins, I love a wild and unusual idea, I love champagne and chilies, I Love the perfect play list and I love to watch the bush change with every minute of light.

Success! Message received.

These images are available in a variety of sizes and formats:~ the timeless elegance of fine art paper, the modern appeal of diamount, or the textured allure of canvas. Let me know what size you have in mind and the purpose behind the image you're interested in. One option I'm particularly fond of is the canvas prints with rustic wooden frames ( see example below ) – they add a touch of charm and character.
