Photography draws us to relive some of the glimpses into the eternality we long for, the imago dei in each of us - the toes of a newborn child; the glow on the face of an expectant mom; that look on the groom's face the moment he sees his "about-to-be" bride walking down the aisle; the veiled smile of the bride as she waits for him as well - and the fleeting joy in the world around us - fading colors of sunset or sunrise; the beauty of the seasons - purple, yellow, pink, hazel; the hands and feet of those in need and those who offer assistance; sadness, joy, happiness, and the life that is so very worth living.
I photograph because it's one of the places where my deepest joy meets some of the world's deepest needs. We all need to connect - to each other and to the world around us. We need to enjoy Life. We need to laugh and cry and find that our memories are there for us to treasure.
I remain available to travel globally, although the Southeastern U.S. is where I find myself most frequently. If you are interested in working with me to capture some of the timeless moments in your lives and those of the ones you love, please e-mail me or give me a call to discuss your creative ideas and set up a shoot.
