Snow-covered wooden dock extending over a frozen body of water, with a partly cloudy sky and distant trees on the horizon.

Here is a little bit about myself. I am a happily married father of 3 wonderful boys and I love to take/make photos. I am sharing in the hope of bringing others a bit of joy. In the chaos of today’s world I seek refuge in photography. Especially the process of analog photography slows me down and grounds me.

If you like a pic, maybe you can order it via my store or you can contact me and we could work something out. If you want to hire me for a project feel free to ask.
