Photography opened up a new world to me when I was in grade school. I always had a difficult time communicating in words what I was thinking or feeling. With photography, I was able to give people a visual insight to my world.
Once I began this journey of learning, a whole new magical world opened up to me. I began acquiring a love for the full creative process. It gave me a feeling of accomplishment in a world I felt I could have never measured up to. The hunt for subject matter, that is not the standard, stimulates my creativity. I prefer to stay clear of producing clichéd imagery by not allowing the latest trends to influence my style of photography.
I am a photographer searching for ways to surprise the viewer by igniting a passion for beautiful things in a world that is often in despair.
