I love being outside and being in nature. Whether it’s a walk in the woods, hiking in the desert, or sitting on the dock. I just love how the senses are stimulated. I love to feel the warm sun, hear the cascading water of a waterfall, see the birds effortlessly glide overhead, and smell the foliage in the forest.

When I look at the world through the lens of a camera, the world becomes totally different. I slow down and immerse myself in the surroundings. Stories begin to unfold, scenes begin to take shape and emotions are felt. Whether I’m admiring a rushing waterfall or a hidden garden downtown, photography opens up a whole new perspective.

I love just going without any agenda and watching whatever unfold. It's those intimate moments of connection, of being fully present that I enjoy the most.

My goal is to share these stories, emotions and different perspectives and inspire people to have their own intimate moments of connection.

Featured in local conservation calendars, winner of state park photo contests, featured in guest blogs, local and out of state, I enjoy sharing the art and connecting with people.

Author of two personal blogs, a travel blog for work, short television segments, and more, I thoroughly enjoy sharing the world, near or far, and encouraging others to do the same. Afterall, the photo is just the beginning of another great story......

Questions regarding gear, locations, or specific photos are always welcome. Feel free to contact me at: peakreflections (@) yahoo.com
