Beginnings

I've always been drawn to the arts: drawing and painting as a kid, music composition as a teenager and photography as an adult.

My Photography interest was born out of an introduction in the late eighties by a friend that I've known since high school when he purchased a brand new Pentax ME Super.

The same friend introduced me to Ansel Adams work and his enthusiasm for what Adams had created drew me in. I was hooked.

As I've grown older, I've found that I'm much more attracted to the wilderness and the people that live on the edges of it. Photography is a great way of getting closer to the land and the cultures that inhabit it.

Publications

My images have been published throughout the world in travel literature publications and on the front cover of various books.

My clients have included the Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation, the Icelandic Post office, American Express and National Geographic Traveller Magazine.

I write occasionally for some of the photography magazines about the process of photography which is an emotional art that connects the photographer to the land, not a fascination with equipment.
