Memory – Of The Moment

Unnamed Thirty Eight — Sidelong :: (click image to see more) I find it really difficult to keep my perspective - I'm perpetually in the moment, so it's really difficult to see growth and change. It's good to be in the moment for creativity but it leads me to despair when I can't see improvement - ...

Second Nature

Unnamed Twelve, 2017 — Side Slide :: (click to see more) So much of how I photograph has become second nature. Most of what I shoot is my family with my cell phone.

Perspective & Reason

Ground Fog, 2016 — Convergent :: (click to see more) Been thinking about what to do next. After my summer hiatus, feels as though I've finished capturing new material for convergent.

Different Perspective

Indigo Squid Beneath Orange Waves, 2014 – Light Signatures :: (click to see more) I had to step outside my warm padded cocoon of a studio to clear my head and think for a bit. It's cold and rainy out there with the birds chirping and Queen street is packed with traffic. It's good to ...

Fearless

Glossy Orange Green Blue Candy Layers, 2013 - Light Signatures :: (click to see more) The other day I had a very vivid imagining. I've had glimpses of this in the past too. I get an over arching sense of my life - I can see the arc of my efforts and encapsulate them as ...

Insignificant Originality

Red Figures Layered In Green, 2012 - Light Signatures :: (Click to see more) I've been thinking about this for a long time now but it wasn't until I recently watched a Ted talk about SETI with Seth Shostak that I started to frame it in a quantifiable way - so to speak. Seth noted that given ...
