I came to photography in 2009. As a student of photography I have learned that success follows when I surrender to my instincts, rather than trying to extensively plan my shots. I prefer to shoot hand held when possible and to immerse myself in the environment in which I find myself. When I become attuned to the circumstances and light and just let it flow, my best shots seem to shoot themselves.

I own a carpentry and remodeling business, as well as a part-time photography business shown here:

Photography is one of several artistic outlets for me, and one that helps keep me sane when all around me is not.
