I am a Minnesota photographer specializing in nature and travel photography. I love the outdoors and enjoy being the explorer as well as the photographer. I use the camera as an excuse to go to some amazing places. Then I do my best to capture what I see and share it with you. My goal is to photograph an animal as an individual with personality . I like to take landscape images that make viewers feel like they are standing right in the scene. All images are a representation of what I saw at the time of creating the photograph, with creativity applied through the use of moderate post processing.

With the support of my wife, and the assistance and companionship of my enthusiastic Springer Spaniel, Josie, I plan on continuing to make new trails and discover new images to photograph.
