As a native Minnesotan some of my personal photography focuses on capturing the ever-changing seasons and natural beauty that entices many who live in or visit the Land of 10,000 Lakes. Once you visit it is hard not to fall in love with the cool, misty autumn mornings, which so often fade to reveal colors of amazing variety and splendor. As a photographer, Photography allows me to view the world in a different light, to see the beauty that so often gets lost in the day-to-day grind of life. It reminds me to slow down, to ensure I take a moment to really enjoy each moment in life to its fullest capacity. The goal of my photography is to encourage the viewer to also take a moment and breath in the emotions and story behind the shot, whether it is the joy of accomplishment, the soul of a soldier, or the heart of a horse. Each photo has an emotion or experience for the photographer, the subject, and the viewer. For the subject the photograph is a chance to relive that moment in time forever and to be able to share with others a time they may not have been able to share together. The photo may bring about tears, a smile, or a reflective pause for the subject. Photography embodies the spirit of self-exploration and development as well as vision, heart and soul. In every photo a photographer reveals something about them self. |
