As a Nature & Wildlife Photographer, I focus upon capturing images that exhibit the pure, natural, and dynamic immediacy of the native plants and animals encountered in Michigan while they live out their brief yet beautiful life-cycles.

As a Christian, I'm compelled to reciprocate to the world in regards to utilizing the talents which I possess by donating my work to organizations for their fund-raising and educational purposes.

Please inquire for donations.

Eastern Bluebirds Hatching     2008     

 My artwork, which I entitle Animal Portraits, hopefully reveals many facets of the powerful, miraculous, intricate and perfect Creation as I observe it through my camera lens.

As my work progresses, I want to reach an appreciative audience with which to share these intimate and often unseen moments that occur parallel to us in the world of wildlife.

Likewise, I would like to facilitate connecting people with the projects that help steward our  intrinsically connected worlds. Many good causes are listed in the Links section.

We are not separate from nature, but "a little lower than the angels and a little higher than the beasts."
