A belief in capturing everyday life in beautiful and unexpected ways, drives my art.  My inspiration comes from being awake enough to recognize a compelling story just waiting to be told.  My style is fresh, candid, and full of light.  Viewing the world up close through macro photography has become a prominent feature in my work.  This intimate point of view dramatizes the fragility of life.  Being in the moment allows me to find the visual message in simple, everyday objects and events.  My hope is to invite viewers to explore the world around them with fresh perspective. 

2010 promises to be FANTASTIC here at The Studio 56!
