Profile
I am a self taught photographer and artist. At a young age I developed a love for drawing and painting, a talent my parents encouraged. However, as I got older my abilities did not match what I saw in the world and in faces, therefore in wanting to capture light and people’s emotions, I turned to photography. I especially love the use of mono, or as it is also known, black and white photography, to convey feelings in peoples’ eyes and faces.
I truly believe that everyone is beautiful and eagerly pursue the chance to show just that.
Previous photo work has included maternity, numerous family shoots, couples, bridal, seniors, children, infants and the elderly. My product photography has been used by the “Multiple Sclerosis Association of America”, in fund raising campaigns. And my landscape and food images have been featured in local and state magazines. Lastly some of my Landscape and Still Life photos can currently be found for sale as stock photography with Getty Images.
In my spare time I enjoy visiting the beautiful parks and towns around Door County, where I am based. I also take the opportunity to volunteer my time in public work, and widen my horizons by traveling.
