About Photos2

Welcome!  I am an environmental lawyer by day and avid photographer by night—or, more often, vacation.  A firm believer that people ruin photos as a general rule, my preferred photographic subject is the same thing that inspired my desk job: the natural world around us.  I also enjoy shooting cities and architecture, but even then I gravitate toward green spaces within urban environments.

My personal and professional lives have taken me many places, and my camera is always in tow.  I lived in five other states before finally returning home to Chicago, so I was able to explore and shoot a variety of scenes right beyond my wandering front door.  Additionally, I have been fortunate to travel to some amazing locations internationally, and merely telling people what we saw has never felt like enough.

Over the years, a hobby has become more.  I honed my skills shooting for my college newspaper.  I have licensed my photos for commercial use since 2010.  More recently, when Flickr asked to feature my photos in their curated galleries and strangers began asking to purchase my work, I decided it was time to set up a website.

Thanks for visiting, I hope you like what you see!
