I love being in the outdoors. Taking photographs my experiences creates joy and documents the special moments through camping and kayaking. Nothings beats the time when you are capturing a sunset, a foggy meadow or an iced covered light house. Playing music allows me to calm most storms in life situations and allows my creative-side to be released.
