I've had a camera in my hands for the last fifty plus years. As a commercial studio photographer for thirty or so of those years, I worked with international companies and shot all over the world. In today's quickly changing world, and after a bit of a respite, I have turned my lens on the outside world as a reaction to changing climates and attitudes.
My camera is once again my companion, but this time, it points toward something quieter. I’m not chasing spectacle. I’m drawn instead to the humble, overlooked places: a lone tree catching light, a weathered fence tracing the rise of a golden hill, an anonymous creek reflecting the changing sky.
I photograph these scenes not just for their beauty, but for their presence — their ability to slow us down, to remind us of what remains steady in a world that often feels anything but. These are not the images of postcards or screen savers. They are meditations. They are meant to be lived with — on walls, in rooms — offering stillness, memory, and place.
Living in Northern California, I’m surrounded by grandeur, but I find my inspiration in its quieter corners. In returning to photography, I’m not seeking recognition; I’m seeking resonance. I hope my work invites viewers to see differently — to feel something lasting in what might otherwise be passed by.
I will add any shows, assignments and developments of interest on this page in the future.
