Hi! I take photos as I explore the world with my lovely wife Vale.

I began taking photos seriously (pun intended) around 2016, when I found myself thinking much more about composition, light, and subject, but my basic motive for snapping a photo hasn’t changed: capture a unique moment and its emotions.

You can find a lot of street photography and landscapes in my work, but I’m trying to escape from genres and catagories.

I have books and zines available: they allow me to give a cohesive form to my photographs and gain a sense of closure and purpose to many of my trips.

I’m active on Flickr, Mastodon, and Bluesky. Of course I have a blog.

Oh, and all photographs on this website are captured and edited by me. You won’t find AI-generated images that I pass off as my own.
