The Leap

After years of exploring motion, both peaceful and chaotic, in my underwater series I’m spending more time above the surface but still trying to use my favorite aesthetic of high-contrast natural light images. The themes sometimes still contain water as a cleansing or renewing medium, but I also have started exploring the use of light with my subjects seeking or reaching for a higher place, self, or ideal even if it seems unobtainable.

I graduated from Bucknell University with a major in English and a minor in Chemistry. I worked at Barnes & Noble for four years and currently pay the bills as a nuclear medicine technologist. The rest of my time is devoted to my various cats. My ultimate dream would be to go to Mars, but in the meantime I do this photography thing.
