(b. 2001) is an American photographer, writer, and designer studying Marine & Natural History Photography at Falmouth University in the United Kingdom.
Using abstraction, spare and striking compositions, and only the best natural light, he simplifies landscapes. He creates photographs which emphasize subjective feeling over objective truth, capturing not what the camera sees, but what we see.
In 2020, he learned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, to design and build this website from scratch. He spends his time between Falmouth, Cornwall, and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he grew up.
