Bio:
My passion for photography began as a way to capture my personal travel adventures. Over the years I have dived into landscape and Marco photography. I have found my passion in close up and abstract photography has been a welcome addition to my photographic journey. To escape so deeply into the details of a tiny object turns off the world for a few moments.
I am proud to have my work exhibited in several galleries across the U.S. and to teach local creative workshops.
My goal as a photographer and in life is to continue learning and growing. I always try to capture the expected in unexpected ways and to embrace the light and the shadows.
Courses and Workshops:
My workshops and courses help you discover new creative techniques to bring your images to life. My signature course, A Year of Creative Photography, held once a year, offers 12 months of creative education and a supportive learning community. I also teach online courses in editing, Lightpad photography, and artistic flower editing.
Photography Style
With a passion for nature and flowers, much of my photography is shot from my personal English cutting garden and in my potting shed. My goal with each image is to evoke emotion, showcasing parts of nature that you don’t typically notice. I use creative shooting and post-processing techniques to bring my images to life.
