At heart, I am a hunter of special moments; sublime points in space and time where the forces of the world come together to produce something extraordinary. These can be as awe-inspiring as a tornado churning up a field on the sweeping great plains, or as intimate as a songbird performing a mating display in a quiet forest glade.

What these moments share is an intense sense of privilege. I'm left with a feeling of gratitude at being fortunate enough to have witnessed them.

The camera allows me to share these special encounters with you. My goal is to produce images that evoke the strong emotions — awe and fascination; humility, delight, and wonder — that these moments evoke in me.
