     I began taking photographs in the 1970's while an engineering student at Oregon State University as I traveled to my hometown of Red Bluff, CA during breaks, driving through the southern Cascades as I went.  I began taking photos there to remind me of the beauty I was seeing.  So my photographic journey began. 
     During the summers while in college, I worked in the woods in the logging industry.  Living in the woods fueled my passion for the outdoors, and I began taking weekend backpacking excursions into the Cascade wilderness.  After I graduated, I to work for WSDOT in Olympia, WA to start a career in geotechnical engineering. 
Photographing the natural beauty of the mountains and coast lands became a life-long passion for me, using Olympia as my base for the past 40 years. While my photographic focus has been on the Pacific Northwest, I have also traveled to other parts of the world such as Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Europe, and Chile, taking photographs while traveling.
