welcome

Photography is my passion. I hope that in this collection of my photographs you will take the advice of a great photographer, Ansel Adams, whose quote I have borrowed and displayed on my home page:

​

"A photograph is usually looked at - seldom looked into". ~Ansel Adams

​

One of the best lessons I have learned during my study of digital photography at the New York Institute of Photography is that I am now able to look at the things that I see everyday around me in the eyes of a photographer. I can now see the beauty of common things, events, places, and people and capture the mood, emotion or story behind them.

​

I hope as you look through my collection of photographs, that you will be able to enjoy and find the beauty in some, the emotion in others, and the story that may be hidden within.

​

Someone once told me " stop, look, hear,smell, and listen to the beauty of all of the things around us".

​

Photography is a gateway to the memories of the beauty we capture . It not only refreshes those memories, emotions, events, history and all that is beautiful or not; it also educates, inspires, informs, and has a lasting place in time.

Sincerely,
