Travel

​

Traveling the world is my realization of a life long dream. Nothing is more awesome than the experience of photographing the backwaters of the Arabian Sea on a houseboat, Mount Etna on Easter Sunday or the landscapes of the Atlas Mountains while driving to the Sahara Desert. I am forever changed by photographing the emerald green and purple hues of the Aurora Borealis as it lights up the night sky at the Arctic Circle. It is  a privilege to photograph these amazing places and meet people of many cultures while capturing their unique qualities in portraiture.
