"I am South Dakota-based, and my main focus is creating colorful landscapes that reflect some of the most beautiful places I have seen in North America. By capturing moments with magical light, my images reflect a combination of patience and dedication, with a determination to capture the images in the most captivating methods possible. It is also my belief that my images have a way of conveying the feelings and stories behind each and every one, to help make the viewer feel as if they were there when the image was captured.

Photography has been a major part of my life for the last 38 years. As a self-taught photographer, I have used books and videos as my instructor; but in-the-field is where I received the majority of my knowledge.

I began quite modestly, shooting weddings, portraits, and Little League team pictures; but knew my true love was outdoor photography. It didn't take long before I realized that I needed to be in the great outdoors shooting nature, rather than in a studio or church shooting people. My areas of specialty include Landscapes, Architecture and Night Photography. An assignment with Texas Parks and Wildlife had me shooting a series of images at Palo Duro Canyon State Park for one of their projects.

Up until this year, the majority of my images were from the South, which offers many diverse landscapes and remote places; but, with my recent retirement from the rigors of ""going to the office"" every day, more time is now available for travel and photography. I believe that "The Southwest is loaded with history and beauty, with many features unlike other areas of the U.S.A. It is a photographer's paradise; and I enjoy capturing and sharing its' beauty."

Over the years, I have developed an innovative style that blends realism with a little abstract expressionism to produce images that most everyone can relate to. The use of vibrant colors in my compositions makes my work an excellent choice for a variety of purposes and locations.
