In my most recent work, I’ve been revisiting the familiar near my home - from Olympia to the coast - to bring new perspectives to the often seen and explore the magic in the mundane.

 

All of my photographs are archival pigment prints on the finest papers, usually those made by Hahnemüehle, a German manufacturer of fine papers since 1584. My black and white photographs are printed using Piezography which utilizes special inks and has the highest resolution and most subtle tonal range of any black and white printing process. It is also the most archival. All of my prints are sold in limited editions of 10 or less, usually in three different sizes.
