Surreal Minimalist Photographer
I believe in light the way a painter believes in paint ...
I believe in the sublime and haunting beauty of the world. I see it in the way the light falls on a face, the way a flower unfolds, the way a bird soars through the sky. I believe that these moments are fleeting and often overlooked, but they are also the most precious.
My work as a photographer is an attempt to capture these moments and share them with others. I want to shift the real to the surreal, to draw out the beauty and imagination in even the most ordinary things. I want to give people a new perspective on the world, to make them feel like they are in a dream.
I am not here to tell you how to think about my work, or even how I think about it. I am here to give you the opportunity to explore your own thoughts and feelings. I want you to feel something when you look at my photos, whether it is joy, sadness, anger, or something else entirely.
I believe that art is a powerful force for good in the world. It can make us see things in a new light, it can make us feel things we never thought possible, and it can bring us together. I am grateful for the opportunity to use my art to make a difference in the world.
In addition to posting examples of my work on this site, I also regularly share the stories behind my work and methods. Check out my stories to learn more about my process and my passions.
