About
My passion for photography started with wanting to capture the places that gave me peace and made me feel the most myself. And now I want to share that with others, in the hopes that my images will bring you some of the peace that they give me.
Although I have been into photography for longer than I can remember, it wasn't until after a trip to the Hills four years ago that I finally decided to invest in a nice camera. That night in the Hills the sky was blanketed with stars like I had never seen before, and I was kicking myself for not having a camera with long exposure.
​
Later, my photography expanded to capturing those around me. After a tumble I took down a cliff in New Jack City, my climbing trip quickly turned into a photography trip. The tumble led to a sprained wrist, so although climbing was out of the question, one handed photography was still feasible. I started capturing my friends belaying, climbing, reading, and just enjoying life - all one handed.... I would find the shot, lower the camera to my lap to adjust the lens with my good hand, and re-aim the camera to capture the shot. I still love looking back at these pictures, as they capture the people I love unfiltered - I find that my favorite pictures of people are those that aren't posed, pictures where they don't even know the camera is on them.
