About
My passion is nature photography. I share the beauty in nature as seen through my lens. My creative vision is to show nature as it truly exists in wildlife, landscapes, macro, and long exposure photography. I do not digitally manipulate my images to something the is not an accurate representation of the subject. All my wildlife images are taken in the wild and I do not bait or call in the wildlife. I have great respect for the environment and our natural world.
I have lived in and photographed Half Moon Bay for the past 30 years where I am surrounded by the boundless beauty of the coast and rural farmland.
I see this amazing world through the edges of my viewfinder. Looking
through my lens is my calm, passion, awareness, and joy. Photography enables me to stop, listen, and capture a unique moment in time. Using natural light in my images allows me to create a mood between the boundaries of my viewfinder. My images capture the elusive qualities of light and time in nature. It is my pleasure to share these unique moments with you.*My photographs are on display and for sale at:
