Artist Statement I've been involved in amateur and semi-professional photography on and off since 1984, when I purchased my first "serious" camera, a Pentax ME Super. Early in my photographic career, I worked as freelance photographer for a whitewater rafting company in British Columbia, Canada, and had my work published on the front cover of a Northwest electronics buyers' guide. My photographs have appeared in many places since then, from the front page of a local newspaper to motivational posters for a college in Ireland. More recently, my work has been published in a calendar produced by a large botanical garden near my home, and even appeared in National Geographic Magazine.

I prefer to shoot natural subjects such as landscapes, flowers, and wildlife, rather than people or urban scenes. To me, the spendor and beauty of the natural world are far more interesting and photogenic than any man-made subjects, and capturing and preserving that beauty in photographs for others to enjoy is my favorite pastime.

I currently live near Seattle, Washington, in the heart of the Puget Sound region. A lifelong Washington resident, I enjoy the wonderful photo opportunities provided by the diverse and scenic locales in the Northwest, where almost any conceivable environment, from seashore to mountains, from rain forest to sagebrush desert, is within a three-hour journey from my home. This rich variety of landscapes and animal habitats affords me opportunities to photograph nature in all its many forms, and provides me an endless source of subject matter.
