FIREFLY PHOTOGRAPHY

Like you, I was fascinated by fireflies as a kid. Who didn’t run around catching fireflies, sticking them in a jar to watch blink, blink and glow?

In 2015 I started to photograph fireflies, which opened up another level of wonder. I was intrigued by large number of fireflies magically lighting up the darkness. Wasn’t even sure if it was possible to capture them on camera. Using long exposures, I began juxtaposing the horizon, the glow of the sky, stars and firefly trails.

Through this firefly study with these magical little beetles, I’ve observed  fireflies use long grass environments in the lower valley, where the evening dampness settles. My goal is to create more of this firefly habitat.

Please consider a purchase of these tiny lanterns, for your home. They look great above a fireplace mantel or a headboard. You’ll have a unique piece of art and nature.

Portrait photography is rather magical. Every portrait session has a goal, every personality is unique.

If I bring anything to a shoot, its probably honesty, a casual openness, and hopefully a trust that is revealed through the photograph to the viewer.

My portrait photography subjects range from commercial or corporate portraits to editorial work and senior photography, plus family portraits. We can shoot outdoors, indoors, window lit, wherever, it doesn’t matter.

My volunteer portrait photography consists of working with Flashes of Hope, where we photograph children who are being treated for cancer, along with their families. See FOH portraits.

For MN Heart Gallery, we photograph young adults in need of a home. Each of these groups provide such a wonderful service helping children of all ages.
