I view the camera as an extension of myself, a window into my impressions of the world. If I had to define my work, I might call myself an expressive documentary photographer.  I am interested in recording what I see in the world, and aspire to do so in a way that also captures an emotional connection to the subjects of my photographs.  Rarely, I might achieve this in a single photograph.  More often, the feeling emerges through a series of images that, over time, evolves into a project or portfolio of work.

I operate in both the natural and built environment, and bring aspects of landscape and street photography to all of my work.  At heart, I am a storyteller.   I want to intrigue the viewer with what is in the frame, and cause them to wonder what happened outside of it.   I strive to find meaning in the mundane and beauty that is hidden in plain sight.  I am intrigued by similarities in places that are worlds apart.  In my travels, I attempt to soak up the extraordinary but photograph the ordinary.  I am mesmerized by the patterns of moving water and captivated by small landscapes.  I take photographs to collect cultural objects and historic artifacts before they disappear.   I seek out unintentional humor, odd juxtapositions, and human emotion on the street.

I offer both inkjet prints and handmade books of my work.  All printing, framing and binding is done by me, using archival methods and materials.
