Experience the Beauty of Nature in Every Frame
I believe my images are not complete until they are brought to life in the printed form. When I’m in the field creating images, I always envision the final print, carefully composing each frame and considering its ultimate impact. Back at the computer, I meticulously develop my images with the printed piece in mind, ensuring every detail contributes to the overall beauty and emotional resonance of the artwork. Each photograph is a journey from capture to print, crafted to provide a timeless piece of art that you can cherish for years to come. When you invest in a piece of my photography, you're not just buying an image; you're bringing a slice of nature's serenity into your home or workspace. Bringing the the beauty and tranquility of nature into your home or workspace is good for the mind, body and soul.
I offer my images in three options: Traditional Fine Art Prints, Trulife Acrylic Float Mounted Prints and Canvas. More info on each medium below.
All of my images are offered as limited editions of 100, once an images sells 100 copies, that’s it. Each print will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a short story about the image.

Fine Art Prints
Traditional Fine Art Prints are by far my favorite way of displaying my images. I just love the look of a framed print. I personally print each image, except for large format images, inspect, and sign each print before they are shipped to you. I print my images on Red River Paper’s Palo Duro SoftGloss Rag, a fine art paper made in Texas. This paper is museum quality, conservation grade, and acid-free, ensuring it lasts the test of time and remains beautiful on your wall for years to come.
Made from 100% cotton rag and featuring a lightly textured soft gloss surface, Palo Duro SoftGloss Rag gives the classic look of a darkroom photographic print, which I love. This paper has a slight texture on the surface, allowing the details of the image to really pop. The OBA-free archival paper is a neutral white, meaning the paper tone is neither warm nor cool, so the whites of the image are true white. This paper also produces luxurious deep blacks, resulting in beautiful contrast throughout the image.
Each image will come with at least a one-inch border around the image for matting and framing. I hand-sign each print in the lower right corner and write the edition number on the lower left corner.
I offer my Fine Art Prints in three options:
Loose Prints: You can take these to your local frame shop to frame.
Ready to Frame: My Ready to Frame prints are already matted in three different sizes, which are standard and can be found at any home decor store. Please note that to fit standard store-ready frame sizes, each image will have a very slight crop.
Framed: Framing is very expensive and time-consuming. I can handle the framing process for you and ship you a finished piece of art ready to hang on your wall. Most of my images look best with a standard gallery-style black frame; however, if you wish to have a different style or color of frame, we can discuss that. I choose to use TruLife Acrylic with UV & Non-glare filters as the glazing for my framed images. This reduces the weight of the image and prevents shattering if the image should fall. The UV & Non-glare filters help protect the longevity of the image and reduce glare from the sun or lights.
Please note that fine art paper, whether it’s the paper I use or another brand, is very delicate and is not meant for handling. Oils from fingers will transfer to the surface of the paper, resulting in fingerprints. Only handle fine art papers while wearing cotton gloves and from the edges. If you are purchasing a loose print to have framed, I suggest you take it directly to the framer and let them handle the prints.
My Perspective
I offer these paper-based formats—Print Only, Matted, and Framed—to give collectors flexibility in how they experience the work. Some prefer the freedom to frame the piece in a way that fits their style, while others want something that’s ready to display right away.
The Print Only option is perfect for those who already have a specific framing vision or want to work with a local framer. The Ready-to-Frame Matted Print makes it easy to find a frame off the shelf and still maintain a clean, professional presentation. And for those who want a finished piece delivered to their door, the Framed Print offers a classic, timeless look with materials chosen to protect and showcase the artwork.
Whether you’re looking for simplicity, convenience, or a gallery-ready finish, there’s an option here to meet you where you are.

Acrylic Face Mount Prints
Ilford B&W Prints Face-Mounted Behind Matte Acrylic
Select images are available as Acrylic Face Mount Prints produced through WhiteWall, one of the world’s top fine art photo labs. These prints combine traditional black and white photographic printing with a clean, modern, frameless presentation—designed to bring out the depth and atmosphere in each image.
Ilford Black & White Paper
Each piece is digitally exposed onto Ilford silver halide black and white photo paper, then developed using a traditional chemical process. This method produces rich blacks, glowing highlights, and smooth tonal transitions—ideal for capturing the subtleties of light, shadow, and texture in black and white photography.
Matte Acrylic Finish
The finished print is face-mounted behind matte acrylic glass and backed with aluminum for durability. The matte surface significantly reduces reflections and glare, allowing the details and depth of the image to shine in a variety of lighting conditions. A hidden float-mount system gives the piece a clean, frameless appearance—ready to hang right out of the box.
While these arrive ready to hang with a clean, frameless presentation, a float frame can be added to create a more traditional look. This optional upgrade enhances the visual presence of the piece while maintaining the modern aesthetic.
Key Features
Ilford silver halide black and white paper
Matte acrylic finish for reduced glare and distraction
Frameless, gallery-style presentation with float mount
Archival materials for long-term durability
My Perspective
This presentation format allows my black and white images to speak with quiet confidence. The matte finish complements the subtle textures and tonal range in my work, inviting deeper reflection without distraction. It’s modern, understated, and beautifully suited for any space where the art is meant to breathe.
Canvas Prints
Canvas Prints: Elevate Your Space with Timeless Art
Printing your images on canvas offers a classic and timeless way to showcase your favorite moments from nature. My fine art canvas prints bring a touch of elegance to any space, with a texture and depth that uniquely highlight the intricate details of each photograph.
Crafted with care, each canvas is printed using high-quality inks on premium-grade, 100% cotton canvas. This ensures not only exceptional durability but also a stunning tonal range and contrast. The canvas captures the rich blacks and delicate whites, enhancing the subtle gradations and striking contrasts of your black and white images.
The canvas is then stretched over a sturdy wooden frame, creating a finished product that's ready to hang and admire. For added sophistication, canvas prints can have float frames added to them, enhancing their presence and providing a polished look. Whether you're looking to add a focal point to your living room, office, or gallery, canvas prints provide a versatile and stylish option. The matte finish reduces glare, allowing you to appreciate the nuances of the monochromatic tones in various lighting conditions. Each piece is also available in a range of sizes, offering flexibility to suit your specific space and aesthetic.
Canvas prints are typically displayed without a frame, but they can also be framed in a float frame for a more finished or formal look. This is a popular choice for collectors who want to bridge rustic and modern styles.
Canvas prints are also a more economical option, making fine art more accessible without compromising on quality. Additionally, the absence of glass eliminates a barrier between the viewer and the art, creating a more intimate and immersive experience.
Choosing a canvas print means choosing a piece of art that will stand the test of time, both in durability and style. It's a perfect way to bring the serene beauty of the natural world into your home, capturing the essence of each scene with a sense of timeless charm.
My Perspective
Canvas has a unique warmth and texture that complements certain images beautifully—especially those with softer transitions or more organic subject matter. It’s a timeless format that feels both relaxed and refined. I offer canvas wraps stretched over a deep frame for a clean, frameless presentation that works well in a variety of settings—from rustic cabins to modern homes. It’s ready to hang as-is, but it can also be framed for a more finished look if desired. For collectors who want an artful presence without glass or glare, canvas offers a beautiful balance of simplicity and character.
