Bio
My artistic philosophy centers on the act of conscious observation - seeing the unseen and valuing the moment of discovery. Photography, for me, is more than an art form; it is a means of navigating and making sense of my experiences with anxiety and depression. Through my lens, I seek to capture the essence of being truly present, encouraging viewers to explore their consciousness and find beauty in the small details of life.
I am deeply fascinated by the intricate details of nature and how they mirror the complexities of human emotions and mental health. Through macro plant photography, I explore themes of presence, resilience, and the enduring beauty that exists even after life fades from plant cells. My work is a testament to the art of seeing - finding the extraordinary in the overlooked.
My journey with
photography began in my youth, quietly capturing the beauty of the natural world on my parents' hobby farm in central Minnesota.
