My favorite subject to photograph is Colorado mountains in autumn and fall. There is something magical about the experiences that I have had while exploring Colorado when the golden yellow aspen trees begin to turn and snow kisses the mountain tops of my favorite 14ers. Every year since 2011, I have made a point to make multi-day journeys into the deepest areas of Colorado wilderness to create beautiful photographs. My attitude as a photographer is that the experience comes first and the rest will follow. This has been a powerful guide for my photography since 2017 and has enabled me to discover things about myself, about the landscape, and about nature that I would not have if I had a prescribed approach to checking off boxes of places to visit. I never know what I will come home with and my creativity flourishes in this method of capture.
