Looking back to my
favorite camera the Nikon
F5, I found it strange to
handle the F6. The
controls on the F5 were
perfectly placed and I
could operate it in total
darkness. Since digital
took over, I use all types of
cameras and find the
smaller bodies aren't so
bad when you have to hike
uphill for miles :)

Mission Statement

Nature is the driving force behind my career. Growing up in rural areas it was
natural to spend more time in the wilderness than indoors. Even though I
photograph a variety of assignments, outdoor photography is still the heart of
my business. Not everyone lives in a rural area and it’s a moral obligation to
promote a greener lifestyle and hope that each person takes steps to conserve
our natural resources and preserve our world. This is a lifestyle, passion, and
desire to have a greener planet for our future generations to enjoy.
Please help preserve our Natural Lands and Wildlife.
