About ME
Place — where humans meet the spaces they have created.
As an urban designer, planner, and photographer, I am endlessly fascinated with the intersection of people and place. My 20 years of experience in designing and manipulating the physical world has shaped the way I observe my environment, and honed my vision as a photographer, capturing images of the details that others often overlook — the juxtaposition of materials, the watchful stance of an elusive gargoyle in an entryway, the ways colors coalesce for just a moment during dusk before they change, once again.
Photography, to me, is about documenting the spaces that not only serve as the backdrop to our lives, but tell the narrative of our history and culture.
This extends to my human focus, as well — capturing the commonplace moments that ultimately come to define our lives. Playing on the playground, washing the dishes — acts that are un-extraordinary by any metric, yet bely a fundamental human aspect, and an ode to our place in the world as humans, families, lovers. This element of my practice has been driven by my two young daughters, chronicling the little moments that will grow to be so big as time advances.
My style is journalistic and candid, allowing the subject’s personality to emerge, without overproduction. And I’m always up for a challenge. If you have a particular subject or place you would like photos of, I would love to capture those images for you, so let me know and I’ll check it out!
