I am a self taught Fine Art and Portrait photographer. I was born and raised in Kalamazoo Michigan. and moved here the first time when I was 23. I have left a few times but always come back. Colorado is where my soul is at peace and my spirit can soar. I love photographing the beauty all around us. I never want to take it for granted or loose site of what is truly important. I am blessed to have met the most amazing people here. Coloradans are some of the kindest I have ever met, and I have lived a lot of places.

I have a son, Mathew, a daughter, Rachel and a grand daughter, Angel. My sister and best friend, Mary, lives in Grand Lake where she owns and runs Grand Escape Cottages. I have an Arabian mare, Magic and we have been together for around 18 years. My constant companion is Shelby, my shetland Sheepdog. And last but not least, my partner in life, Charlie.
