I
have always been a photographer, even before I knew it, I was.
I bought my first camera at a yard sale for 10 cents when I was
eight. I scrounged cameras and film, and took photos for me; the
ones I wanted to take. When there were no photography courses
at my high school, I took night classes at college. I’ve
owned and shot with everything from a brownie to a top of the
line Nikon, and I loved them all. I see the world through the
lens, even without a camera.
In 1994 I moved to British Columbia
and became inspired by the West. The mountains the ocean, and
the world around me. Now, my work revolves around our environments,
the ones nature has created for us, and the ones we create for
ourselves, and ideally, how they relate to each other to impact
our lives.
I work. I am fortunate to love what
I do, I don’t just work at photography, I live it. I don’t
think I could escape it if I wanted to, and I might very well
find myself lost if I did.
I play. You have to play, it’s
good for the soul.
