It all began in my sophomore year of high school when two of my friends introduced me to photography. Later that fall, my dad bought me my first Canon camera and it was love at first sight. I began primarily documenting life events, birthday parties, and gatherings. It was also a hit with the ladies but that's a story for another day. It was fun documenting my life and I kept it up throughout coll

ege. In medical school, I started to do some traveling to San Francisco, New York and national parks and expanded the scope of my photography. Unfortunately, my captures didn't always reflect the splendor that I witnessed with the naked eye. By this point, the internet arrived on the scene and I decided to enroll in the New York Institute of Photography where I learned the basics of what makes a great photograph. Once I completed that program, I became intentional about practicing and honing my craft. I've always had a love for God's creation and what better way of experiencing it than through the majesty of the national parks? Every time I traveled, I had my camera with me. I read everything I could on light, exposure, composition, and learning to see. Digital photography transformed everything with its immediate feedback that afforded me the luxury of making adjustments on the fly. I also started attending photography workshops which combined my growing passion for this art form with my love for the outdoors. This really helped push my photography to new levels. As I continue to perfect my craft, I want to magnify the Creator by sharing his awesome creation with the rest of the world. Welcome.

People sometimes feel they need to be able to articulate why they want a particular work before they are allowed to buy it. That is not how it works.

The attraction does not need a defense. You do not have to be able to explain Baboon Family to someone who asks; you just have to know it belongs in your space.

The explanation, if you want one, tends to arrive later on its own.

Every work that reaches a collector is the result of many decisions, including the decision not to show what came before it.

The finished work is not the whole story. It is the end of a longer, quieter process that most collectors never see.

When you live with Yosemite Valley View, you are living with the result of the artistic process and all that comes with it.

Elephant Sunset

Three elephants move across a low plain, their dark silhouettes set against a molten-gold sky. Cloudbanks glow with amber and ochre, while denser shadows add depth and contrast. The procession’s measured spacing creates a steady rhythm that conveys passage and scale, turning each trunk and tusk into a concise, graphic line.

Near-black forms sit against luminous air, so the composition reads clearly from a distance yet rewards closer inspection: feathery grasses and a slim reflective wetland offer texture and grounding without competing with the sky. Horizontal sweep directs the eye gently left to right, giving the scene a calm, contemplative pace.

Color is restrained but expressive—warm tones dominate, balanced by stark silhouettes that emphasize both intimacy and vastness. The overall effect is quietly commanding, suitable for a living room, study, or entryway that needs a serene focal point.

Interior designers often talk about sightlines. They're the natural path your eye travels when you enter or move through a room.

Most people never think about this consciously, but they feel it. Art placed directly in a sightline changes a room immediately.

Placement is as intentional as the work itself.

Where would you put Wild Goose Island?

A lot of people hold off on collecting art because they rent and feel uncertain about committing to walls they do not own. But art does not belong to a wall. It belongs to you.

Renting is not a reason to live with bare walls. It is a reason to collect work that matters enough to keep moving (and growing) with you.

"Lion Babies" and my other work are connected to the people who love them, not just the places they're displayed.
