Much of what I do is wedding and portrait photography but a passion of mine is landscape photography. I enjoy photographing the Minnesota River Valley, Southwestern Minnesota, and natural areas in other parts of Minnesota and the U.S. Born and raised in Ely, the BWCA and the North Shore are favorite photographic locations. Family camping trips to various state and national forests and campgrounds have also provided numerous photo opportunities. It is my belief that it is important to document the landscape as a reminder of what people need to consciously protect for future generations. Without this documentation, people quickly forget how the landscape looked at various points in time. This awareness, through photographs, is a way of continuing to advocate for protection and care of the environment.
