Photography and travel have been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. My family always took every opportunity to "get out of town" and wherever our adventures led us, we carried our cameras. I received my first SLR at the age of ten when my father handed me one of his Pentax Spotmatic cameras. I was hooked!

Photography became a means of communicating the beauty I found in nature. My passion for photography led me to a career selling photographic equipment. Over a twenty-four year span I worked in and managed several camera stores in Utah and Oregon helping both amateurs and professionals in the selection and understanding of which equipment would best fit their needs.

With thirty years of photographic experience under my belt I decided it was time to pursue my lifelong dream of traveling and photographing the natural wonders and wildlife of North America. In addition to my own travels, I work with Moose Peterson and Joe McNally as an instructor in Digital Landcsape Workshop Series around the country.
