The phrase below embodies the critically important values of my wilderness photography.  You'll see the phrase displayed around the galleries and I want you to understand the personal meaning behind it.

Art

• Magical light illuminating a single moment in time. A unique wilderness moment never to be duplicated.

• The artistic ability to convey the feeling of the wilderness experience. Bringing nature’s beauty and inspiration into any setting.

• Choosing from infinite possibilities of how to position and frame each shot.
  

Heart

• Moments in wilderness touch our emotions. We all draw inspiration and find beauty in nature.

• Seeing wild animals in their natural habitats brings us closer to nature. Their fate is in our hands.

• Experiencing, sharing and preserving wilderness is my passion. I hope you’re inspired by Wilderness Wonders.

Wilderness

• Respecting wilderness and experiencing nature on its terms. This means kayaking with orcas instead of approaching them with a large and noisy boat. It means sitting and waiting for animals to become comfortable and approaching me versus encroaching on them.

• Capturing the world’s ecosystem. Erosion patterns millions of years old, young grizzly bear cubs playing with their mother, a family of killer whales resting together.

• Each image is an authentic wilderness scene. No filters. No captive animals. No artificial lighting. No digital manipulation.
