Photography

A Storm rolling through Cedar Island, NC.
 Photography is a new life passion for me. I have always wanted to be a photographer. But only recently have I actually acquired the proper gear and knowledge needed to actually do it. The visual world amazes me on every level. I see beauty in everything, everywhere. I often wish i could record everything in an instant through my eyes. Every time i see a sunset or a sunrise as I am waking in the morning, or my dog as he scratches his back in the grass, my son being a boy, the sea melting my heart, a storm high above, the motion of nature while i drive down a long country road - whatever it is, that fills my heart and makes me smile, I have a strong desire to capture it and share it for whoever wants to see. A picture stays with you, gives you a memory you otherwise would have forgotten; a simple moment in time that tells a bigger story, even if there was no story to tell.

Below is a collection of my favorite photographs that I have taken over the last couple years. I will continually add as my photography journey continues.
