"I believe that photography reflects perception. The created images are intuitive responses to observed moments in life. The elements of the canvas are light and shadow that guarantee constant change and opportunities missed or captured. Photographers are always chasing the light, yet the photographic vision and process can also be a metaphor for life. Ultimately, the experience of a lens-eye view through the camera has taught me a way to process life. When I was developing photographic composition, I would ask the question 'What am I choosing to focus on?' When I looked away from the camera and asked the same question, I found a tool for self-awareness, a catalyst for personal change and a way to balance my life.”
