I work with black and white photography and my work is often abstract and incorporates surrealism, geometry, high contrast and the realities and diversities of everyday life. I enjoy photographing everyday subjects, like this flower, and when photographing I think about using a combination of the right subjects, light, shadow, perspective and the shape of the environment itself. I work to capture what I see as interesting about the subject and then leave it to the individual viewer to look at it in whatever way they wish, and to take from it something unique.

This is a black and white rural landscape photograph and I worked with elements of abstraction, surrealism, geometry and high contrast to create the final photograph.

I still very much like exploring and enjoying the way I work in the moment making photos and coming up with new ideas. I like to work simple and minimalistic. This photo is actually a double exposure or combination of two photos. One color and one black and white blended together to give the final photo a unique and organic look.
