The natural world is my greatest passion. From a young age I was taught to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the world beyond our homes and cities. Since then I have developed a strong sense of duty to the protection and preservation of the natural wonders of the world. With this in mind, I strive to convey the beauty, majesty, and the sheer joy nature offers us through my photography. I happily haul a backpack full of gear high into the mountains or deep into the forests to bring back images of this precious place for all to see. My work is often inspired by these words:

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves. -John Muir
