Artist statement: I am a photographer who is totally enchanted with the beauty and miracles seen each day in nature. I immerse myself into the natural world and let it speak to me. I use my camera as my tool of expression. Nature has so many stories to reveal and I am compelled to share these stories and capture the magnificent transient beauty of nature with my photographs. I find nature to be healing and restorative and sharing this wonder with others brings me great joy.

Artist statement: We have moments in our life that rock us to our core. Death, divorce, violence, abuse, job loss. Crossroads that leave us vulnerable--however, crossroads that connect us to our “humanness”. Life whispers messages of love, beauty, and healing. All we have to do is stop, notice and interpret what it means to us. These images inspired, strengthened, and provided light on my journey.
