MY MISSION
I'm a photography purist. I shoot film as my primary medium of choice. I capture moments that encompass events, people, culture, and environment for publication, or simply because I have a personal interest. I prefer to document wildlife, nature, and human activity. I consider my lens a tool to raise awareness of climate change, wildlife suffrage, and habitat destruction. I know, I've personally witnessed, the effects of climate change on wilderness areas as well as urban environments. It's real, and is without a doubt the result of the human abuses of planet Earth and its resources. If we're going to survive climate change we begin working together to reverse the damage. Life on Earth is depending on us, this generation, to correct the wrongs and restore balance to our world.
CONSERVATION, WILDLIFE & NATURE STOCK VIDEO
Every image in my Limited and Extended Editions Collections - unless stated differently - are of wild animals, each with their own unique story. My camera, and a unique ability to get close to wildlife, is the tool that I use to express my concerns for Earth's climate and the suffrage of wildlife. For many years my goal has been to raise awareness of facts that are omitted in media and sport-hunting publications by showing wildlife in its natural state, and the effects of human encroachment, and abuse. To travel, and locate wildlife incurs substantial personal expense. Purchasing a print, or stock video clip from my collection helps me to continue to tell the story of those without voices.
