Photography, for me, is an emotional pursuit. As I look around, I feel a connection to an object or scene before taking a picture. It is this connection to my subject that I feel that I hope to share with the viewer. More than picking a subject to photograph, I believe the subject picks me and determines the direction. I attempt to keep an open mind and be prepared for the surprises that invariably arise. My goal is to be faithful to the connection between subject, and myself.

I photograph with medium and large format film cameras. The negatives are scanned into the digital workflow, where spots are removed and burning and dodging are performed. Images that I wish to use for alternative processes are enlarged and printed as digital negatives. These digital negatives are contact printed on hand-coated paper under ultra-violet light as kallitypes or cyanotypes. the image determines the printing process. If desired some images are printed as archival pigment prints.


Please contact me for information about which images are available in which processes.
