LifeWorks Photos

Beginnings

Since the mid seventies I have been photographing, starting with black and white film and hours passed in the magical darkroom. I loved it then and I love it still.

How I Work

I've never been one to take a lot of pictures. Often I travel without a camera, preferring to be unburdened by the physical responsibility/risk but more, because I know that when I am looking at where I am through my photographer's eye I am not simply present to where I am. I have foregone photographing often in exchange for the direct, deep experience of being exactly where I am.

When I do have my camera with me and use it, I normally take the picture I want once. I see it, I compose it, I get it, I'm done. What I've realized I love more than anything about my photos is how I see. I find my way of enjoying and celebrating color, form, shadow, subject and composition– delicious. I hope you will too!

Unique Eye Photography

My Unique Eye Photography is now available for purchase on-line in the form of a delicious 2009 calendar, posters/art prints, stationary and more! Some of the notecards and posters include pieces of my writing that I hope you will find inspirational. To top it off, you can even buy postage stamps with my photos on them! Suppose you really like an item but you wish you could change one thing about it? In my gallery you have the ability to customize many of these items to your liking! Be sure to come back often as new items are added frequently!
