Welcome to the journey.
As an award-winning fine art photographer, I create images inspired by story, mood, and the untamed beauty of the Southwest—and beyond. My collections reveal emotion and a profound sense of place. Many of my patrons have shared my inspiration through these unique compositions, treasures that now enrich their collections.
While the Southwest remains my muse, my portfolio also embraces eclectic subjects—from the vibrant artistry of Chihuly glass to historic Midway photographs, dramatic images of the Grand Canyon and unique geography of the Utah and Colorado landscapes—each image a window into beauty and story.
It is a joy to share this journey with a growing community of collectors and art lovers. May these photographs inspire you as deeply as the landscapes inspire me.
