I started my journey in the world of photography 8 years ago. I dabbled into different genres of photography before focusing on landscape photography. Over the past 8 years I have traveled to 22 states in US to capture the natural beauty that surrounds us. However when I moved to Utah 5 years back, I fell in love with the state. During the last 4 years I have driven around 48000 miles exploring the rich, diverse landscape that Utah has to offer.I am currently based in Salt Lake City.
Since the last 2 year I have been fascinated by Night photography. It is my new passion and as a result I’m always out in search of unique locations to shoot the starry skies. It is peaceful being out in the night and seeing all the stars. I also love to include a human element in my photographs. I believe it adds a sense of scale and injects energy to the image.
