About the Photographer:

Born on June 16, 1985 on Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines, I lived in Germany and England before moving to the United States. I have lived in Georgia, Illinois and both the Lower and Upper Peninsulas of Michigan.

Since the fall of 2003, I have lived in Houghton in the Keweenaw Peninsula while attending Michigan Technological University. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, I developed a fascination for photography and began photographing nature and landscape. Upon accepting a position working for Michigan Tech as a photographer, I began doing sports photography and special events. In January 2008, I photographed my first wedding.

Upon my graduation from Michigan Tech in the Spring of 2008, I'll begin a three month trip across the western half of the United States taking photographs in places such as Glacier National Park, Zion National Park, Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Badlands and Monument Valley.
