I was always the one in my friend group who brought along a disposable camera or my tiny Nikon Coolpix to our gatherings. In 2018, I bought my first DSLR (a used Canon Rebel) and started taking it along on my hikes in Arkansas.

I now shoot with a Sony a7ii. I’ve dabbled in commercial photography, but I prefer to take photos casually of whatever strikes my fancy. That’s still usually nature and my friends. I love capturing images of folks in their element.
