I'm a full-time photographer in Boone, NC. And pictured with me is my bulldog "Mack" on one of our winter trips up on the Blue Ridge Parkway. I am lucky enough to live next to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Mountains to Sea trail, and being immersed in nature influences a lot of my work. I am up there almost every day and it allows me a chance to refresh and experience new things. For me, photography is all about the light and I chase it frequently.
Ever since I was little, I've always been amazed by the beauty of nature and all of its amazing things. Capturing its ever-changing beauty was very much a goal with me then, as it is now. I can be frequently found along the Parkway and in the backcountry exploring its many hidden secrets. That, combined with my many years in the outdoor industry with Mast General Store has led me to my current path of landscape photography and education.
I enjoy shooting many aspects of photography, including Weddings, Portraiture, Commercial, and Fine Art Landscapes. My style is fun, creative and detail-oriented. I love my job and I have learned a lot about photography through this cross-discipline approach. Working with all kinds of people has always come naturally to me, and there's not a soul I've met that I haven't become friends with over the years.
Education and experience is what influences my creative style of photography and has given me the tools to progress, without many limitations. I love to create, and it is evident in all areas of my work.
Let's face it, photography is moving at light speed these days. I am not only immersed in photography at many levels, I am also working on my drone pilot's license. Video and Video production have always interested me and I'm happy to say I jumped in to that 2 years ago and haven't looked back.
Anyway, more on that later. Exciting times we're in!
