Plants, animals, and sunsets are her favorite things to photograph.
Artist Statement
I love capturing single moments in time with my camera. I use photography to document beauty I find and memories I do not wish to ever forget. I put the spotlight on the things that are overlooked. From the view of dew drops on clovers that are trampled underfoot—never given a glance, to miles-long scenes at the top of a mountain, I want to preserve all these memories that would be lost to time.
As a photographer, I strive to convey beauty and to remind people to slow down and spend a moment in the present. There is overwhelming beauty in this universe. I want to show people the beauty I see, the beauty in the thing they could not stop long enough to see the beauty in for themselves. I want to remind people not to get so caught up in themselves that they miss these precious moments.
