Telling stories has always been one of my greatest survival mechanisms in life. I’ve chosen to have always told those stories with a camera. Like a good novelist I attempt to show that person and place are almost inextricably intertwined.

What has always been my intention as a photographer is to be as sincere and empathetic as possible, and a kind observer of the world around me. I’ve always lived my life intensely soaking up the environment with a non-judgmental (but truthful) eye and using my images as a reflection of that. With me what you see is what you get, the stark truth. But through this interpretation, it’s a loving truth.
