statement

back    In my work thus far I have been drawn to relationships and spaces. The spaces are the settings, the backdrops for the relationships and emotions I am exploring. My photos have always been, no matter the subject, about sharing the things I think shouldn't be overlooked. I am greatly intrigued by the idea of a scene set up by one hand and reinterpreted by my own eye, then presented to another for dialog. They are little moments, interesting details, a mood created by space that I try to capture. I humor and celebrate the capsulated pieces of daily noise and treasures that make up our found and real alter pieces. I try to find the small details that speak to a subconscious bringing recognition and intrigue, a familiarity, but not necessarily a comfort.
   The collection of images in this portfolio finds beauty in the stories and responses they bring out of the viewer; the relationship made by the individual to these scenes and objects that they really have never known is the real life force behind the photos.
