I live to press the shutter button. Nothing is more satisfying than knowing I've captured what I set out to capture. My photography can be described as contrarian in nature; I can shoot bright, colorful images one minute and then switch to moody B&W’s the next. I am much more comfortable behind the lens of a camera than in front of it. That is one of the reasons I believe I gravitated towards photography as a teenager. My whole objective is to show pretty pictures. I know this sounds trite; but to me, this is what it's all about. I want to bring out the beauty and exquisiteness of everything around me. I believe, we have enough pessimism surrounding us so we don't need to see more. I have sold thousands and thousands of images around the world in my thirty years for every purpose from a small thumbnail on a foreign website all the way to a twenty-nine-image display for a Vancouver Canada hotel lobby and guest suites. And no matter its use or purpose, I am always honored and humbled that someone enjoyed my work enough to want to exhibit the image in their home or office.
