About Me

Into the wilderness I go, to lose my mind and find my soul. Embracing creation, making it my own by giving it a destiny of forever.

My Work

A Field Guide gets to see life in a way very few people get to. Adding Photography to the equation to me is essential as I've always been interested in it. Photography is a way to share the memorable and make it last forever. So if I can make my memories and experiences last forever, then why not?
