Themes
The Portland Project
I'm a Portland, OR based photographer that walks the streets daily, capturing life in the Rose City. Sometimes I wander into the forest, along the river, into topical news events, or merely capture cultural ephemera from the Pacific Northwest. I'm spending an entire year capturing life in Portland, OR.
Kinetic Light
In 2013, I spent a year capturing light in motion. I would stack ND on my camera lens and paint with daylight, making gestural movements with the camera. The collection was displayed in a solo show in Los Angeles at the Appel Gallery. The work was well received.
Portraits
I'm currently available to capture unconventional or conventional portraits in Portland, OR. I prefer to capture people in their natural environment, but I'm also available for on location shoots.
