Bio

Born and raised in San Diego, California, my childhood memories are woven with moments of joy spent at the beach with my father. The connection to the ocean is profound, and I carry his love within me whenever I'm close to the waves. The images I create are an extension of that love—a tribute to both his influence and my deep appreciation for the sea.

In my earlier years, I was an avid surfer, often thinking, "I wish I could capture these waves and sunsets." Eventually, I traded my surfboard for a camera and water housing. While the equipment may be more expensive, the breathtaking outcomes make every investment worthwhile.

Life took an enchanting turn when I met my soulmate, Tina Rae, who hails from Honolulu, Hawaii. Our union further deepened my connection to the ocean and the enchanting forests where I wander to capture my ultra-macro and macro images.

Through my lens, I invite you to experience the unique perspectives of macro photography. Each image is a whimsical journey into an artistic thought process. I find joy in the fact that these moments are fleeting and can never be replicated. Despite attempts to recreate the same image within seconds, the beauty of macro photography lies in its ephemeral nature—a reminder that every shot is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. I hope you enjoy exploring the world through my lens and appreciating the magic found in the details.
