Nature & Abstract

My work expresses my interest towards nature. From flowers to trees to abstraction found in nature, I strive to see the beauty and intimacy in the environment. Nature is a whole different world from the human life, but similar in so many ways. As I engulf myself in nature, I begin to hear voices and discover personalities. I see gender, texture, faces and light within each object.

I enjoy viewing the outside world through another's perspective. Light is the medium of photography and I take advantage of this by emphasizing texture, contrast and form. I generally shoot on sunny days because the stark contrast brings out nature's personality of intimacy and power. Not only do I focus on the aspects of light, but I also utilize macro lens in order to see extreme close up details of flowers, patterns and textures. Most of my compositions develop after I print my photographs.

My abstract prints are left up to the viewer to interpret. I encourage people to turn them in different ways from the original print to find a position that pleases their eye.

The purpose of my work is to become one with nature by bringing out the beauty, form and abstraction that it births. My passion towards nature comes from the soul and I live to share this love with others so they will develop a greater appreciation for our natural environment.

Weddings & Portraits

One of the most important things we cherish and hold dear to us is photographs. Whether portraits, weddings, birthdays, or some other special event, we all want the best of memories from these occasions. As a photographer, I capture moments that could be forgotten.

Being a newly wed and a photographer, I've experienced these special occasions from both sides of the camera. I am constantly discovering new ideas, faces and artistic creations. Your wedding day is a memory you'll remember forever, my goal is to help capture every aspect of it so that no one will ever be able to forget your special day. From the bride and groom getting ready, to ceremony, to the leaving of the bride and groom as they start their new journey together.

Photographs are the best way to keep our memories intact. Family, friends and loved ones will always enjoy viewing and sharing these special moments with you.
