ARTIST STATEMENT: There are so many beautiful things in this world, and we are so lucky to be able to capture them with our own eyes. We see the beauty grown from the roots of the ground, and the tiny freckles on someones nose. But some things we see, we are only able to see once or a few times in our lives. A camera allows us to be able to capture what ever it is that we see, and keep it forever. That's what I love about photography.
Any time I see a really good piece of work, it inspires me to become better. It inspires me to get my work to look amazing. I love to see myself improve. There are so many different types of photography, and I love to work with them all. Nature photography allows me to see earth's beauty. I get to capture something that mother nature created. Portrait photography is another one of my favorites. I get to work with other people and I get to see all of their emotions and get them on camera. And then allow them to keep the photos for themselves.
Not only is photography a way of capturing beauty, it's a way to capture a story being told. That's the best part about photography, is it's hard to figure out the story. For most viewers, they have to figure out what the photo means to the photographer. And for the photographer? Well, they get to decide what they think to world is telling them. Photography allows me to think hard about what I am doing, and choose what I feel is the most beautiful and best story teller. I get to make all of the decisions on my own. All of my photography is my work. As you look through my photos, I hope you can try to figure out the story being told and decide if you think it has a meaning. Whether that meaning is to the world, to me, or even to you. That is my goal as a photographer.
