Photography gives me the gift of being more aware of whatever is true in each moment. Whether that is peaceful, painful, passionate, or pedestrian, I feel lifted up by being open to the moment and seeing where that takes me. I photograph the rhythms and intimate moments I find in the landscape and in dance. I also, more recently, am exploring what I can express through abstraction. While these are very different subjects, the changing flow of the first two and the vulnerability of the third move me. I feel stronger and more alive through photography. My hope as an artist is to express that sense of the connection between the Light within each of us and that which gives life to everything around us.
