PURPOSE AND AUTHENTICITY
In my 20 years of professional experience, I’ve played many different roles as a business owner, not just a photographer. Whether I am project managing large projects for clients or mentoring employees/other photographers, I understand the importance of working on the ground level but also having clear sense of the big picture.
When you work with me, I am focus on delivering your needs as a client and less about what I want out of the project. Still, I thoroughly enjoy a collaborative process when we share a vision of creating stories that has meaning and purpose.

I wasn`t sure about heading down to Grand Teton NP after all the snow in Yellowstone but I was able to do some snowshoeing here. It was glorious to be in a tshirt and hike in the snow and pretend I was a yuppie enjoying Jackson Hole. Apparently, Jackson Hole is the mecca for the elite and I can see why. #park #national #nationalpark #nationalparks #grandtetonnationalpark #grandnational
Visited an old friend from a previous chapter in my life. After 14 years of living on his land in big sur, he is still sleeping on the floor and doest have constant electricity. To most he is one if the crazy ones but there is much to learn from in being with him for two days without much distractions. Still even a modern hermit can be distracted by endless projects.
Yellowstone is such a big national park that i had to get up at 3am to catch sunrise in Lamar Valley from the west entrance! Unfortunately, there weren’t that many diverse animals out on the ‘Serengeti’ of the american west but you can’t miss the bisons. Alas, i had to settle for the epic sunsets. #yellowstonenationalpark
It was my second time in Yellowstone and catching it at the tail end of a long winter season, I didn`t spend much time hiking because there was still feets of snow in most of the park. So i made the best out of the visit by spending more time doing photography. Seems obvious when i carry that label around but to be frank, taking photographs isnt usually my main priority on outdoor adventures. #yellowstonenationalpark #nationalpark
Another quick work trip. Had one personal day to hit the trails and interviewed BIPOC Rincophe. Still chugging through a backlog of images/interviews but at least I figured out a better tool for creating stories. Was debating between canva and adobe express for a while but canva came out on top. #canva
Wrapped up a mini road trip to a few places I`ve been meaning to check out in MI. Started at fort custer, stop by hardy dam for the `dragon` mtn biking trail and then ended up in the torch lake area. Spend a lot of time just playing in nature and practicing the one taste of all phenomena. Michigan definitely has a wonderful collection of fairly clean fresh water lakes which I love but the tourist destination of Torch Lake was a bit overrated. So I caught a little of the crazy storm that came through the lower part of MI and mother nature put on quite a show to say the least.
MEANING
I choose this symbol as reflection of my aspiration. Wikipedia has numerous interpretations of this symbol and these particular ones best reflect my practice:
- The inseparability of emptiness (shunyata) and dependent origination, the underlying reality of existence.
- The union of wisdom and method.
- Interplay and interaction of the opposing forces in the dualistic world of manifestation, leading to their union, and ultimately to harmony in the universe.
- The inter-twining of wisdom and compassion.
