Artist statement
I have always felt a strong connection to nature, and to the feelings of peace that can be found in a natural environment.
In my work, I attempt to convey those feelings of serenity and calm, and to interpret the emotions of the captured moments. This is accomplished through a combination of a minimalistic approach in my photography together with my attraction to water and the open space.
In post-production, I pursue a pastel and clean style that tries to soothe the soul even more.
With my photographs, I hope to provide the viewer with a different perspective and attitude; one leading to a place that lingers between reality and imagination.
