Artist's Statement
Working with medium and large format cameras, I photograph
subjects that evoke an emotional response in me. I strive
to print the image the way it "felt" at the moment
it was photographed rather than trying to replicate the way
it appeared at that moment. My images are a combination of
simplicity and emotional response. My photographs illustrate
how I think and feel about the subjects that spark my curiosity.
These images sing in a voice of highlights which rise from
the depths of the shadows. How they sound to you may be completely
different from how they sound to me. Whether or not we hear
the same song is irrelevant since each individual ear has
his, or her, own interpretation, and it is you who makes the
final decision.
