Captivated with the art of photography since the age of ten I have been creating images employing traditional and contemporary photographic processes.
One approach to my imagery is to create a painterly effect by using motion, color, and light in unusual ways. First Ferry to the Mainland, the first photograph in this style, won the RAW/Boston Globe Magazine contest called New England Beginnings published on January 17, 2010. A client who purchased the print called the image “haunting and beautiful.”
More recent works add a fourth element, gesture, to the motion, color, and light; such as a person walking into the view finder at the “decisive moment,” the wave crashing on the shore, light streaming into a Japanese tea house or hitting the yellow fin tuna at precisely the right time. The addition of gesture has provided a sense of immediacy to my photography and help capture the subject’s essence.
