My photography is about capturing sublime, timeless moments... Whenever possible, I use only natural light. It may take me days to have the sun slant across my work space at just the right angle. Light brings a lushness to the images. When I use film, whatever alterations are made to the image are done by hand after it is developed, not digitally. However, I also love the FREEDOM of digital photography and its seemingly unlimited possible enhancements. I enjoy the differences between film and digital photography and feel fortunate to have both capabilities. I use a Nikon F3 for film and a Canon EOS 50D for digital. Even when I worked exclusively in film, without any computer alterations, people said my images were very painterly. That description seems to apply even more so with my digital work. Painting on just about any surface, from shoes to jewelry to paper to walls is highly satisfying to me! Especially if it means re-purposing something... I also truly love the physical act of hand-applying embellishments to paper, fabric, and other available materials. In a nutshell, I believe that art is magic. Feel free to contact me for any sort of custom order! I am interested in your ideas, and I can turn my photography and prints into postcards, greeting cards, anything that comes to mind.
