I enjoy using a camera to translate my visualization into reality on paper. Visualization is defined as the ability to see in the "mind's eye" the finished work before actual application. It is the creative process of images transitioning from the realm of the reactive and contemplative to the conscious and deliberate. An element of surreal gives the viewer a different perspective on the subject, removing the literal and getting down to the essence of conveying the energy of the subject. For me, the image begins when the work goes beyond merely representing reality and enters the realm of personal expression. My methods are meant to be intentional, whether in the camera or post processing.

Remnants



Spring is around the corner but I'm still working on fall images!!! You know when a bride and groom depart the church and they are covered with rose petals thrown at them. This reminds me of that...the remnants left on the ground after a "hooray" moment. I wanted to "romanticize" the image a bit and soften it a little.
