about me
As a photographer, I'm interested in sharing new ways to see common imagery, while relaying an uncommon aesthetic. Although varying in subject matter, the photos presented share a central aim: to engage the viewer through the suspension of representation, connotation, external references, expectations and other forms of mental noise that prevent the observer from seeing the world directly.
I'd like to think of my photographs as experiments in aesthetics that require participation. Successful viewing hinges upon silently experiencing the image, rather than identifying, judging or reaching conclusions about what is observed. Common elements include the golden ratio, rule of thirds, missing subjects, synchronicity, the ultra-mundane, juxtaposition and obscurity.
About me: I grew up in Lenoir, North Carolina. Over the past 25 years I've been shooting all over the country, but primarily in the northwest and southeast regions. My work was featured in art shows in Atlanta, Jezebel magazine and Artist-A-Day; an online art gallery. I currently work as a psychotherapist and live outside of Seattle, Washington.
