I am here to share Nature



Through my lens, I aim to tell stories that evoke emotions, spark memories, and ignite a deeper appreciation for the world around us. Whether it's the vibrant hues of a sunset, or the awe-inspiring landscapes of our precious public lands, I strive to encapsulate these moments in their purest form.

Conservation


One of my core beliefs is in the preservation of our planet's natural wonders. Our public lands are invaluable treasures that deserve our respect and protection. They offer us solace, adventure, and a chance to connect with the raw beauty of our Earth. I am committed to supporting organizations dedicated to preserving these lands, ensuring they thrive for generations to come.

Every purchase of my photography supports these vital organizations. Together, we can make a difference in safeguarding our public lands and nurturing a sustainable future for all.

About me

Oliver


Best Dog Ever


Oliver was my best friend and companion for over 12 years. A Bernese Mountain Dog with an amazing personality, he lived to love. Because of his separation anxiety I took him everywhere I could and we traveled a lot. He past away in February of 2023 after a very fast and aggressive battle with lung cancer. A good friend of mine immortalized him in a logo and will always be the face of 1st Light.
