entry description
Living around the San Francisco Bay, wind is a common fact of life. Since wind is invisible we're left with photographing the result of the wind; gnarled tree limbs in this instance.about the photographer
Nature photography is more than just pretty pictures to me. Nature photography is both my savior and my therapist. Early on, photography became a creative outlet for me to express myself as I struggled to establish myself following college while also helping me to cope with my dad’s terminal illness. While my landscape and nature photos might sometimes look beautiful, it is rarely my intent to showcase beauty for beauty’s sake. Most of my favorite artwork seek to relive specific memories and feelings from my youth. I hope that my artwork can bring similar joy to your life as it has mine.back to gallery
