Artist Statement
My passion for photography began as a small child when my father presented me with my very own Box Brownie camera. I can still recall the adventures I had exploring the local woods and fields, the smell of the trees and the mud, the sounds of the rushing water from a nearby stream, and the crisp autumn leaves rustling in the wind. It was all so magical that it made me feel alive and one with nature.
My aim, as a photographic artist, is to create ‘Immersive Landscapes’ that draw you into the scenes that I photograph, and compel you feel almost as if you are a part of my image. Nature offers a wonderful palette of colours and experiences, and through my photographs I attempt to bring my experiences of natural beauty to the viewer.
This is an exciting time in photography, and I fully embrace the power of the digital darkroom to turn the raw camera data into works of art that have the emotional impact of a painting, but with the detail, authenticity, and direct connection to nature that comes with photography.
As I fulfill my own curiosity to explore, create, and grow, I will be constantly adding new images to my website. It is my hope to capture images that will inspire people to get out and enjoy nature for themselves.
