About
Life as art.
Some types of art we create, for me that would be photography most often.
More important is the art that we bring into living life.
Our lives are our masterpieces.
Photography is a passion and a tool that both documents and supports my lifestyle. Eleven short years ago I resigned from a decade of working on boats in Alaska and began pursuing photography as a career. The subjects I photograph are the things I love most, in this way photography has supported the pursuit of my passions in life and enabled me to stay light footed and in touch with the natural cycles of life and nature. I currently shoot stock images and commercial/editorial assignments.
I love to photograph, especially:
- Aerials – lately I’ve been shooting from a self piloted paramotor mostly. It’s fantastic. Better than helicopters, airplanes and ultralights. I’ve tried them all.
- Surfing – Something I’m fanatic about doing as well as photographing. Check out www.SurfAlaska.net for more than you can eat.
- Good natural light – When the light is right the subject is secondary, I love it all when the earth is bathed in golden sunlight.
