Inspired by the love of the outdoors and traveling, I photograph nature and landscapes. Even if I return to the exact location looking for wildlife or dramatic lighting, I'm open to witnessing the environment differently and hope I have my camera ready for the event. What I find most rewarding about shooting outdoors and in the elements are the moments of unexpected beauty. These are the memories I like to photograph and share because these are moments in time that might not occur again.

With a graphic design and visual art background, I enjoy experimenting with new art forms using my photographs. I'm exploring alternative printmaking processes and mixed media to communicate the image differently. I use these hands-on methods to explore the creative process as a means of expression.

Together with my husband and two Spaniels, I divide my time between Montana and the Oregon Coast, two areas rich in natural beauty and with new things to see and explore.
