I am a photographer based in Portland, OR. I have spent the past 17 years capturing and creating images as a Visual Effects Artist.
Photography for me is about the adventure, capturing genuine moments, and the beauty of nature. The incredible adventures I’ve been fortunate to be apart of and to have captured images of aren’t just stories I will share for the rest of my life. They are educational experiences that challenge who I am as a person as well as my photographic knowledge. Especially when shooting in remote and harsh environments. Teaching me more patience to wait for the right moment and place to capture. Studying how the light moves through different environments and falls on the subject which can mean the difference of a dramatic scene or a bland image. Being more efficient with my methodology and equipment selection. Learning better communication with the subject or model or the team I’m working with while always keeping the final image in mind.
