Photography - Into the lightsteemCreated with Sketch.

I've spent the last 10 years of my life looking into the light.

It is the beginning and end of what I do. Where it exists, things are seen. Where it does not, things remain hidden. With light and dark you can create worlds inside the world, microcosms of reality. Sculpting that which exists as both a wave and a particle into something that moves people, inspires them. That is the goal of all true photographers.

I have studied it non-stop hoping and trying to follow in the footsteps of those who inspire me. I seek to express myself through the manipulation of what is ever-present and taken for granted.

Whether I have succeeded or failed is up to those who view my work because I will never be satisfied.
