I enjoy photography...

I find nature fascinating - everywhere I go I discover new and interesting insects and
plants. I captured this dragonfly playing in the grass in Australia, it stayed around just
long enough for me to capture its metallic body and delicate wings.

People
Man on Bench photo
I enjoy photographing people going about their lives. From children playing in the street to dancers rehearsing for a ballet, there is beauty in people enjoying life. I was exploring one of the many gardens in London when I spotted this gentleman enjoying a good book.

Cities contain many photo opportunities. NYC is one of my
favorite subjects with its amazing architecture, beautiful rivers and lush parks. This shot captures the Brooklyn bridge at night and is both peaceful
and electrifying.

Islands are the perfect escape - there is no better way to forget the city than exploring secret beaches and hidden towns with my camera. I love the rich blues of this picture I took on the island of Santorini in Greece.

Photography contributes to my development…

Photography contributes to my professional development by helping me acquire an eye for design and composition. Photographing people teaches me the value of communication and selling my work teaches me marketing and sales techniques.

Photography contributes to my personal development by allowing me to express my
creativity. It gives me opportunities to connect with the people I photograph and with those that appreciate my work. It also
gives me a way to give back to the community through volunteering my
photography skills for charities at their events.
