BACKGROUND

Born and raised on a Minnesota dairy farm, I learned at a early age that in order to get things done you have to work hard and be focused. It's the same way with my photography–a lot of hard work and dedication.

I have been shooting for 11 years. My photographs have been published in Arizona Highways, Outdoor Photographer,Country, National Geographic, Arizona Journeys,Readers Digest, Mesa official visitor guide, Avery Labels, Chase Bank, Smith-Southwestern calendars, Zipatoni company, Dunn and Rice Design, inc. I have also sold fine art prints to corporations and private collectors.

My work is carried by two stock agencies: Brand X Pictures in Culver City, CA, Panoramic Images in Chicago,IL

The following quote is very meaningful to me and inspires my photography:

"I am drawn to the mountains and the desert,touched by the stark beauty, the silence, and the sense of timelessness that resides in the deep and lonely canyons."
