"I am a true Californian, through-and-though. I absolutely love it here, and really can't imagine ever leaving this wonderful state. My passion is photography, and when it comes to my work I am a perfectionist. I'll do whatever it takes to get the shot I have in mind; whether it's fording the stream, hiking the cliff, leaving earlier, staying later, ect. I simply love photography, and like most artists, I love the creative process. I seek photographs that are inspirational, intriguing, detailed, colorful, timeless, emotional, passionate, artistic, and simply amazing. I have photographed many different things, and I love it all. Just using the camera keeps me happy, and the creative process, the adventure, the challenge keeps me hooked."
