Light, textures, feelings, memories, time immortalized; these are the essence of photography. My drive to capture images, as well as to share them in print and on digital platforms, has been propelled by the world that surrounds me. I have been captivated by photographs and photographers since I was very young. I've been an active photographer for over 30 years.
Today, I would consider myself a "generalist" photographer, but there's no doubt that my background in biological science influences my view on the world and my choice of subject matter. I'm originally from Arizona, but I have been a resident of the west of Ireland for the past decade. My favorite places on Earth are the deserts and dry lands of North America, but I have learned to love the mountains and bogs of Connemara as well. The time I have spent living on this side of the Atlantic has also spawned an involuntary interest in capturing details associated with the millennia of human existence.
