Each year, I spend five months in Maine and seven months in Florida.

I grew up in Maine and have returned to the same coastlines, wetlands, and forests for more than six decades. In Florida, I’ve spent four decades observing subtropical habitats under increasing pressure.

My photography is shaped by long-term presence — returning to the same places, watching what changes and what disappears.

What I photograph is informed by patience, repetition, and familiarity — noticing subtle shifts in behavior, timing, and balance that only become visible over time.

These images are not isolated moments. They are part of an ongoing photographic record.

Many of the habitats I photograph are already changing faster than they can recover. Some will shrink or vanish within a generation.

My work is about bearing witness - creating a visual record shaped by care, restraint, and respect for living systems that remain. It is about bearing witness — creating a visual record shaped by care, restraint, and remain.
