I make photos that attempt to communicate how I see the subject whether it is a person, place to thing. Most often this is not the way it came out of the camera. I want to bring out what the viewer can't initially see. To show what is behind the subject. To make photos that call attention to those things that are commonly overlooked. I look for the unknown within the subject, the stories not obvious to the viewer. My goal is to go beyond the normal and allow the viewer to get a better understanding of the subject and of me as an artist.
