I am a nature photographer from the Appalachian mountains of southeast Kentucky where I have lived the last 20 or so years of my life.

Water is my “thing” if you will :) as I get more of my work uploaded here you will no doubt see. I shot Canon products exclusively, having just recently upgraded to a 5D.

I have a full time job as a Thermagrapher and this job allows me to travel through several mountain states which provides me with many opportunities for my other camera :)

I have won numerous awards online and locally (back to back Best of Shows 05,06 at the Festival of the Mountain Masters, 5 Editors Picks at Nature Photographers Online Magazine just to name a few) and been featured in one juried show so far, several images published locally. Still wainting on the big publish :)

I sell prints through my web site www.trbphotography.com I will eventually post work here for sale.

Artist Statement:

I have always been drawn to nature, unfortunately there have been long periods of my life where I have misplaced that. In recent years with camera in hand I have found that love once again and I hope my photographs show that love of God’s creation. /

With my photographs I try to capture the sense of awe I find around each bend of a creek, top of a mountain or the crashing of water over a waterfall. The perfect light at the perfect moment is breathtaking, that moment is what I strive to capture. I hope the viewer of my photographs is able to feel what I feel as I shoot the scenes. /

That feeling is powerful, standing watching the fog lift from a swift flowing mountain stream, or the sun quickly descending behind the mountains, a feeling of being part of nature, of watching God’s hands at work. That is what I hope my photographs capture.
