As a photographer, I attempt to capture that ‘quality’ that transcends the ‘scenic’ and reveals the mystical. When I have succeeded at that, then my images will achieve my goal: to create passion, uplift, inspire and touch others in ways that perhaps nothing else has before.

I hope to convey a feeling of calmness, a meditative quality that engages the viewer and asks them to join in contemplation and introspection; to leave the world of the mundane and enter a sacred space and relationship with it.

It is my desire to capture images that are timeless, painterly, and exhibit a richness and depth. I look for landscapes where there is a natural rhythm, a ‘motion’, a playing of colors that entice and beckon me. I am attracted to water elements in the landscape – to record the beauty that is intrinsic, and also the fluidity and life inherent in water.

I want to reflect a sense of purity in my vision. Therefore, I employ very little manipulation of what nature has offered. The art is in seeing what exists and translating it for the viewer.
