My wife Carin and I have been together for ten years. Our favorite things to do are traveling and playing outside. We moved to Breckenridge, Colorado in 2004 because of our lifestyle. We love the fresh air, winter skiing, and the summer hiking and mountain biking.
We also really love traveling. Between the two of us we have been to 49 U.S. States as well as numerous countries across the world. Our passion for travel comes through in my images. In addition to capturing the moment and photographing people’s personalities I understand how important a sense of place is with images.
Carin and I have always been adventurers. We met in 2000 while backpacking the Grand Canyon on a college trip from Illinois. We’ve been together ever since. I started getting serious about photography my senior year of college when I spent a summer working as a white water rafting guide in Georgia. I guess it should have been little surprise to me that my first image published in National Geographic would be of a rafting trip down the Colorado a few years later.
I really love photographing weddings. Not only is it fun, I find it to be very challenging and rewarding. While I enjoy landscape photography because it involves careful planning and patience, I prefer wedding photography because of the spontaneity. Every wedding is so unique, and each presents new challenges and opportunities.
