I am a lifetime storyteller. I use my camera to convey stories with a strong sense of place and emotion. I prefer a minimalist clean image with a photojournalistic feel, without contrived or overblown edits. I was blessed in youth to live in Yellowstone Park, surrounded by astonishing photographers. I have been most heavily influenced by the work of Walker Evans, Edward Weston, William Henry Jackson, and my mentor John Stamets.
I teach photography in formal classroom settings, on ships and in small seminars. I also exhibit, publish, and do custom shoots. My subjects include nature, landscapes, architecture, nightscapes, and historic rephotographics. My favorite camera is my Graflex 4x5 monorail, which I shoot in B&W film and develop in house. I also shoot a Graflex Speed Graphic 4x5 for remote work, and various Pentax DSLRs. I enjoy the challenge of remote field work. I've been lucky to have opportunities to take photographs in places from Greenland to arctic Alaska and the Mediterranean.
I post select images from my various projects and daily life on Instagram. Here are my most recent feed images… follow my feed directly in Instagram, I’d love to connect with you! I try to post about five images per week, depending on my work load.
