Growing up in the country, I was captivated by nature’s beauty and drama at a very young age. I learned to respect and listen to nature and to wait for her secrets. Nature is art, and I think of myself as a Wildlife and Nature Photojournalist. I lose myself in nature, and capture the subject’s beauty and behavior, which are both captured in my style of photography, creating a unique and artistic reflection of my time in nature. I have witnessed and learned much about this world and myself while taking these photos. I feel there are many stories to be told in and about nature as it unfolds before those who are willing to go out there and observe.
