I am currently a freelance fine art photographer, author and workshop instructor. I left my corporate life 5 years ago to become a full time professional photographer. I am fortunate to have had my work regularly appear in Arizona Highways Magazine, as well as numerous national publications such as National Geographic, Outdoor Photographer, Digital Photographer and calendars for the Nature Conservancy, and Global Action Team and Smith SouthWestern. My images are also in corporate and private collections around the country.
As an Adobe Certified Expert in Lightroom and Photoshop, I teach group and private classes for photographers seeking to get the best out of their images and to streamline their workflow and digital asset management systems. I teach workshops in Landscape Photography for Arizona Highways Photo Workshops and Southwest Perspectives. I have found that teaching others and sharing my joy for nature and the outdoors has been one of the most rewarding part of this journey.
I was born and raised amidst the green rolling hills of the English countryside but now I’m completely at home surrounded by the arid desert and swirling sandstone of the Southwest. I find Arizona a land of intense beauty and preposterous contradiction.
I want my images to capture the diversity of nature, waterfalls, snow-capped mountains, autumn leaves and desert sands, from the magnitude of the immense landscape to the smallest, most discreet of details.
I thrive on the challenge of the ruggedness of the land, the great distances to be traveled, and intense weather conditions to capture images of Arizona and the Southwest that expose its many treasures and extremes. I want my to images reflect a keen sense of curiosity, patience and the ability to see the world and its magic places in new and creative ways.
The desert can be unforgiving of even the smallest errors, treating the unprepared harshly. But, for the few with passion, those who are willing to begin their trek at the end of the road, the secret world of the Southwest is revealed.
