Nature is where I begin, but rarely where I end.
I am drawn to light, shadow, lines, forms and textures — elements that can transform very different subjects into similar experiences.
Some images I create simply because they bring me a sense of calm. I often find that feeling in muted colours, monochrome tones and a certain softness or lack of sharpness. What is hidden, obscured or left unseen can be as important as what is clearly visible.
Sometimes I photograph the world as it is. Sometimes I create images of a world that could exist — shaped by imagination, thought and emotion.
Photography is my way of looking, feeling and thinking.
I don't live to photograph. I photograph to live.
