Artist Statement

The reason why I love taking photographs is because photos can freeze time. Photos are the closes things we have to an actual time machine. By looking at a photo we can take a glimpse of the past. Photos can take us all the way back to the civil war. They can make us remember how cute our children were or funny story at a party. Photos tell a story no matter how simple it is. I take photos to tell a story to other people.

Kayak Sunset


Kayak Sunset: I took this photo up in apostle islands on my kayak trip. Our group had gone to the dock to watch the sunset and I was experimenting with angles and this is one of the photos I got. Angles itself can change how a photo is viewed and I thought giving this one an angle helped out the photo. I met a guy once who didn't like a drawing because the edge of the lake looked too crooked to be realistic. I made this photo to show people like that that it doesn't necessraily need to look realistic to be cool. This proved him wrong since I took a photo that made the lake look crooked.
