Growing up in Wyoming, I was blessed with natural beauty all around me. From the highest peaks of the Grand Tetons to the most remote dirt roads winding through the Great Plains. It was all consuming. I longed to bottle it all up and keep it forever. I needed to hold on to every scenic view, every peaceful moment, every breath of fresh mountain air. But I didn't know how. At least not until I discovered my passion for photography. While my heart may always reside in Wyoming, Colorado is my home now. This equally awe inspiring state has presented me with a new set of challenges and opportunities to permanently capture those fleeting moments.
