Welcome-

As a child I made images of my surroundings while growing up in a small southern Virginia town.  Childhood friendships, simple pleasures and warm experiences gave me a sense of optimism and determination.  For the last 30 years I have taken that spirit and continued to document moments captured through my lens shown in this collection of original fine art photography of varied subjects.  I hope this body of work will help refresh, uplift, and inspire.
