I shoot medium-format digital portraits and documentation for artists, galleries, and institutions in addition to my own nationally and internationally recognized work in photography, filmmaking, and screenwriting. I was awarded the Erik A. Takulan Memorial fellowship at Djerassi Artist Residency and have been the recipient of Film Independent and Chesterfield fellowships. As an alpinist I’ve made significant solo climbs and several first ascents. I recieved my MFA from Columbia University and live & work out of Los Angeles.

film excerpts

My large-format analogue work exploits the medium's inherent dialectic of documentary evidence and pictorialism to explore the contemporary wildland/urban interface. Drawing on, and critical of, conventions in Western landscape photography, I am interested in the nature of time and the possibilty of the concept of the “Sublime” in a post-wilderness. My landscapes present neither a romanticized locus of ideals or wild otherness, nor dystopian topography, but an existential continuum: an impacted and transfigured but still evolving, still vital, Nature. My experimental, documentary, and narrative films engage similar themes of environmental alienation, time, and change.
