Where Reality Meets Creative Expression
Where Reality Meets
Creative Expression
I am a visual artist who uses photography
to move between documenting reality
and re-imagining it.

About My Work
While my early professional work was rooted in reality, my path to photography began with discovering the surrealists Jerry Uelsmann and Duane Michaels. Over the years I’ve moved between literally portraying people, places and things, and more interpretive image making through the use of infrared lenses, multiple exposures, and the slicing and recombining of prints into new images. As I continue to make impressionistic works, I am simultaneously beginning a documentary series about the people and places of my newest hometown. What unites all my work is a desire to seek and share moments of whimsy, beauty and calm appreciation.
About My Work
In recent years, I’ve moved from the literal capturing of places and things toward more interpretive image making.
While I still appreciate a striking city skyline or a delicate floral, I feel freer to portray them as I see them, and not necessarily exactly as they are.
