I look for details in nature that are easy to pass by. After more than 25 years in fashion photography, I’m still drawn to the way color and a shift in perspective can make a familiar subject look different.

In my fine art photography, I work with botanicals, betta fish, and landscapes. I use rich color and sharp detail to bring out what first caught my eye. I want the photographs to invite a second look, so the viewer has time to notice something they might have missed.
