Thanks for visiting!

I’m a wildlife photographer exploring how to use my tools as an artist and photographer to benefit birds and their habitat. My current project focuses on the rapidly disappearing Great Salt Lake, largest saline lake in the hemisphere and lynchpin habitat for ten million migrating birds. My work juxtaposes the vibrant bird life of Great Salt Lake with its otherworldly landscapes.

Introducing
Shoreline Notes

I’m proud to be offering my first publication for sale. Shoreline Notes is a high quality photo zine series featuring images and short stories from my years exploring Great Salt Lake. Volume I—Echo is available for pre-order now. Echo explores Great Salt Lake as both subject and mirror in which we see the landscape and ourselves reflected. Shoreline Notes is created in collaboration with Grow the Flow to support Great Salt Lake Conservation.

View fullsize Reddish Egret, from the Florida workshop with @outofchicago last week. Notice the ripples. While all the other herons and egrets creep, placing each foot with never a ripple, Reddish over here stomping around like T Rex.
