Philosophy
Photography is an attempt at putting my best self into the final image. I use my camera to express what words fail to convey. I choose to dedicate myself to no posing or photoshop in my work in order to create a dialogue of undisturbed reality. I feel most kinship with the genre of “street photography,” but I enjoy all the subjects that life brings to my lens. The only transformation in the image is the necessary editing of tones in the photograph, and the four corners I put around the world.

Style
I make images when I feel emotionally connected with the world around me. Almost invariably this comes after I’ve gained the trust of the subjects I’m photographing. Only with an emotional connection am I able to create a better human experience with my camera.

Technique
I prefer to use a wide angle lens with everything in focus. Everything else to me is superfluous. I enjoy the 8” x 12” size because of the way they inspire the reader to come close to the image. To bring a part of oneself as close to the printed image as possible.
