I am a wildlife, nature photographer living in Orlando Florida.  As a bird enthusiast, I started taking images of  all the migratory birds that visit Florida each year.  I then moved into floral photography.  I still concentrate my images in those two arenas, birds and flowers.  And, of course,  I capture all the little critters, insects, and bugs that are found in the outdoors as well.  I use natural light 95% of time and love experimenting with Lensbaby lens to get that soft dreamy bohek backgtounds.  Photography to me is a never ending challenge to capture an image that can be transformed into a "painterly" image like viewing the impressionistic masters.

My photography is shown mainly in the Central Florida area. I am in many gallery shows each season in the surrounding counties of Osceola, Lake, and Orange Counties.  For years  I sold my work at "Artisans", a coop of 35 local artists.  I just recently took a break from the coop. I have won many ribbons and awards for recognition.  The most recent recognition is through Orange Audubon where my photograph of an Anhinga bird is the cover for the 2024-2025 Membership Program Guide.
