About Me

I had imagined a future as a sketch artist or graphic designer. I filled sketchbooks, worked in charcoal, and began studying design in college. But everything changed when I picked up a camera. Photography matched the way I saw and moved through the world. It gave me the freedom to respond to life as it unfolded rather than interpret it after the fact.

This body of work spans two distinct practices: infrared photography and abstract composition. The infrared images reveal familiar landscapes transformed—foliage rendered in luminous white, skies deepened to near-black, and light behaving in ways the human eye cannot perceive unaided. The abstract works shift focus inward, using form, color, and texture to explore composition freed from representation. Together, the two bodies of work reflect a shared interest in seeing beyond the visible: one through altered light, the other through altered form.

Five decades as an assignment photographer refined my technique, sharpened my instincts, and instilled the discipline to work under any circumstance. Beyond the assignments, the camera became something more personal: the instrument through which I learned to look inward and find my own voice.
