Experienced Nature and Wildlife Photographer

I am a freelance photographer and educator dedicated to environmental stewardship and wildlife conservation. I have been photographing for over 20 years, but it was only after I moved to California 8 years ago that I started focusing on shooting wildlife photography.  I photograph wildlife so that my images evoke a connection between the viewer and the animal.  I have learned through many years of working on wildlife conservation projects that a person is more likely to make an effort to protect an endangered animal if they form a connection with the species.  My goal when photographing wildlife is to help facilitate a connection between the viewer and the native wildlife that so desperately needs protection from the Modern World.
