Publications, Galleries, Awards
Over the years, I've been honored multiple time to have my photographs published, hung in galleries, and more. Here's a highlight of some of those times.

Tamron Fall Colors 2022 VIP Contest
This photo was the a runner up of the 2022 Tamron Fall Colors VIP contest! The guest judge, Lisa Langell, had this to say about the photograph:
“This image is so creatively done. I love the way the hands hold the crystal ball—and how the house and fall color really shines through so beautifully in the reflection. The touch light that bounces off the finger adds a magical sparkle. The lighting, the beautiful bokeh and the perfect amount of negative space come together to make this a very compelling image. It’s unique, well-executed, and playful."
