Artist Statement
My thirst for travel and eye for composition started in the back seat of my family’s Buick as I read the map for my father and helped navigate the route for our annual summer vacation. My entry into the world of photography began as a graphic design major in eastern Pennsylvania where I fell in love with capturing the historic doorways and wooded landscapes.
My passion still lies in noticing the stark beauty of nature and the eloquence of architectural details wherever I happen to be in the world. I am always surprised by the elegant simplicity in the twist of a branch, a ripple of water, the curve of a brick. In my studio I may soften the image and highlight details to invoke a feeling of tranquility and an appreciation for the purity of the colors and forms.
