Water, land, or air--all animals are welcome here. In fact, they welcomed us into their world first! An alliance among human and animal beings is crucial. We are more alike than we are different; we are one spirit, points of light housed in different vessels. We are one race. Animal welfare and protections drives my wildlife photography.
"If our oceans die, we die." (Captain Paul Watson). It is imperative that we are good stewards of our planet every step of the way; from the products we purchase, to the foods we consume, to what and how often we buy, and how we dispose of them. As consumers, we have the power to create real change. For better or worse, the choices we make today will have lasting impacts for tomorrow.
My ambition is to capture images that inspire others to get outdoors and discover the riches that lie in their own backyards. If we get to know our regions better, then we're better able to genuinely connect to create change on a global scale. Together we can heal this living, breathing, life-sustaining planet we call home.
We are granted dominion, not domination, over Earth and all living beings.
Will I leave the planet better than I found it? That is my goal.
All animals in my images are considered wild, photographed in natural light and in their natural habitat. No animals are considered domestic, captive, photographed in zoos, aquariums, private or commercial game farms, subject to harassment, baited, stalked, tricked, trapped, tracked, tagged, monitored, or harmed in any way.
Respecting nature and natural habitats are my priority. My photos are taken from public, unrestricted areas. I keep a respectful working distance from the animals, and I work as quickly as possible to ensure their lives are not disrupted.
All photographs accurately reflect the subject matter as it appeared. All images are original.
