Based in Western North Carolina, I photograph landscapes, people and places in WNC and all the places I travel. My work explores the mountains, forests, waterfalls and communities of the blue ridge, with an emphasis on the atmosphere, light and the character of the places I encounter. I am proud to call the Blue Ridge Mountains home, But I will also include photos from everywhere I see a great photo!
