Photography is a deep love for me; it isn't just employment, and it isn't just a hobby. My camera teaches me how to look at the world, how to notice fleeting beauty and hold on to more memories than one person should ever be allowed. It teaches me to slow down and absorb the world - to get a new perspective if I can't seem to capture the beauty around me. One of the most important things I've learned is that often the most magnificent things are the natural ones; the accidental beauty of nature, and the moments when a person sheds all facades. I always shoot in anticipation of what I can learn, and what the world can show me
