IN LUCE EST VERITAS
My first experience with photography was taking my father’s Nikon film camera to college;
it was the same camera he used when he was a young man. As I explored the delicate interplay of light and the human face, I fell in love with this medium. Years later, my love of capturing diverse cultures and landscapes would compel me to travel to almost 40 countries. What you find here is a summation of those travels and what my eye felt inspired to share.
Along the way, I discovered that photography is a unique art form. That is, instead of fashioning a creation from raw materials, the photographer starts with what is already created -
it simply sheds light upon it.
Therefore, I begin with the vastness of the universe.
The scattered stars above me.
The vast stretches of sand below me.
The eyes of each person in a sea of people.
The wrinkles of the wise, the steady gaze of the young.
The soft curves of hills, and the dramatic shifts of light that dance upon them.
And I must choose between all of these things.
I must choose what to cut out of the frame, in order to better shed light upon what is inside.
It is precisely here that I find my vocation as an artist - In Luce Est Veritas, In light there is Truth
