I aim to create photographs with a natural vibrancy; a hint of story telling and perhaps a touch of  mysticism.

Balancing what’s seen through the lens with the capabilities of digital post-processing, I strive to capture the essence of the region, ancient villages, narrow winding streets, open countryside and layers of hills.

My hope is to achieve a mood that draws you in and allows you experience it. To feel the warmth of the golden sun as it slides down towards the horizon and casts a magical purple and golden glow; to imagine breathing in the fresh air from distant mountains detecting a faint aroma of wild thyme and lavender; to hear the cicadas and crickets playing their music …

This region inspired artists like Picasso, Matisse and Dali. It’s pastel hues of purples and violets, rich golden sunsets and dark green hills provide a backdrop like few other regions of Europe.

Ruined castles cling to jagged mountain tops, rivers that have cut deep ravines and water so vivid blue it looks like its been photoshopped.

I try to bring all of this … this light, this history, this culture … to you in my images.
