These three photographs have captured how on how people and the environment
interact with each other. My focus is to capture an unimagined moment unfolding
in time. Although I was present when these significant life events occurred, the
photographs were unplanned and nothing was staged or premeditated. I just
happened to be arriving at the right moment in which these events were unfolding.
The unexpected - or even a surprise - would surface from the images that I have
captured. These are three of hundreds of images that I have documented over 5
years of travel worldwide. My photographs capture places that draw people to
come together and how we, as humans, respond to the environment around us.
Sometimes, we are unaware of our surroundings and how we are impacted by
them. This approach for me as a photographer has truly been life changing
through the discovery of moments that would have probably been taken for
granted or gone unnoticed. They truly are an extended diary of how people
celebrate life and how our surroundings impact us in very profound ways.
