I am a photographer currently living and making art near Flagstaff, Arizona. I enjoy creating photos with everything from large-format view cameras that are way older than I am, to smart phones, to state-of-the-art drones.

 

I love making images and prints using a variety of historical (“alternative”) photographic processes such as platinum-palladium, cyanotype, and wetplate collodion. Despite a fascination with gum bichromate printing I have yet to tear out what’s left of my hair. My photographs may be of well-known locations, but not the stereotypical (perhaps cliché) scenes. I think this helps the viewer feel like they themselves are out there in it, rather than just looking at a photo on the wall.

 

I grew up in southern Ohio, but after about age 17 things get complicated geographically speaking. I’ve lived in several US states, as well as Austria, Germany, and The Netherlands. I am currently obsessed with Arizona, Utah, and the American Southwest.
