Photography – Boulder

When I wake up in the morning, I grab my camera knowing that inspiration can be found at any moment. No matter what the day may hold, there are always moments of beauty begging to be captured and remembered. Being able to grasp those moments is what inspires me. When my eyes are behind the camera, it is just me and the world. And in the split second of a shutter blink, I am whisked away from reality. I have use of the most amazing \"props\", \"backdrops,\"and \"lighting tools\" nature and happenstance are the best by far with natural light providing all that I need for my photos. Whether it is landscape, portraits, rural or urban life, I want my photos to elicit emotions and conjure memories. My photos speak a story and can whisk you away to another place or take you back to a moment in time. I hope you find joy, beauty, and peace when viewing my photos. It is an honor to be able to share them with you. \"Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snap shot from the photograph.\" ~Matt Hardy
