A Minnesota native, I have traveled extensively throughout the United States and currently call Alaska home where I share my life with 2 daughters, a husband, and 5 herding dogs. Our daily life takes us to some of the most beautiful parts of Alaska. I also enjoy purebred dogs and regularly attend dog events as a candid photographer. Tour my gallery and you'll see my favorite subjects are flowers, children, and dogs. Landscape tops that list. I've always felt a strong connection to nature though find digital photography quite natural as though one can paint with light pixels.
