I'm
a self-taught photographer with a B.S. in wildlife biology. I worked
in the wildlife field for the Colorado State Parks system,
Denver Museum of Natural History, US Fish & Wildlife
Service, National Forest Service, and private consulting. I broke
from the rigid box of science to further explore my interests in art and science
because I can't be locked into a certain path. I like to explore them all. That applies to my preferences in subject matter. My interests are broad and varied, from landscapes to automobiles, industry to environmental.
Blue Planet Photography began in 1994, moving to full time in 2004. I enjoy the challenge photography brings, and I look forward to working with you on your project.
I've been teaching photography and leading workshops since 1998. My philosophy is one of curiousity, exploration, and self-discovery.
In 2010, I was selected to the Idaho Commission on the Arts Teaching Artist Directory. The ICA provides grant opportunities for schools and nonprofit organizations to bring in artists for residency programs. Please contact me for details or visit the Idaho Commission on the Arts for more information. In late 2011, I was voted to the board of the Utah/Mountain West Chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers, the permier trade organization for professional photographers.
I shoot stock, editorial, commercial and fine art photography: industrial, environmental, travel, products, interior, exterior, events, portraits (corporate & personal), sports, fine art. Studio or location, fully digital, anywhere in the world.
I'm here to help you and your business look great.
