About Me

How we decide to see this world is an individual choice. My perspectives and opinions shape my state of being, my relationships and ultimately my reasons for existing. My views of this world can therefore become my gift to it or my burden upon it.

When I go out with my camera, I tend to seek out the beauty, essence and meaning in things where otherwise I’d been unaware. I find that I’m more captivated and connected with the world around me when my camera is in hand.

For me, photography cultivates a state of being where freedom and connection dominate constraint and isolation. It’s from this state that I’m in the presence of something that is greater and more potent than myself. Within that, I find myself compelled to view the world in ways that gift it, rather than burden it.

This is why I photograph.

An Urban Engagement Shoot in Seattle

08.05.10 Posted in: Engagements

Dani and Travis are newlyweds that are freshly eloped! They love billiards, so we decided to start the shoot at a hip pool hall and from there walked the streets of Seattle for a spontaneously natured photo shoot. Dani and Travis both have a fabulous sense of humor, great attitudes and a willingness to play along with my various creative endeavors. The shoot was a load of fun for all of us!
