About Me
The woods of East Tennessee have shaped the way I see for as long as I can remember, their quiet landscapes offering space to slow down and listen and to reconnect with emotion and memory. Photography became a bigger part of my life during the stillness of the COVID-19 lockdown, when silence settled over Chattanooga. What began as a fun distraction turned into a way of rediscovering the land, my own rhythms, and the stories tucked inside ordinary moments.
Much of my work now follows a sense of curiosity along familiar paths. I return often, watching the seasons shift and translating what I find into images that feel honest. This work is both personal and ecological. It invites a slower way of seeing, which honors the fragility of the natural world and our place within it. These moments invite a pause, and maybe a chance for others to reflect on their own connection to place.
Please read my environmental statement, and sign up for my newsletter to stay in the loop. I also have some Thoughts on AI and image processing.
