I first started exploring the world of night photography in
2014 and I was very quickly drawn in by the creative possibilities that it
offers. “CARPE NOCTEM” features some of
my latest works in night photography and consists of exposures that range from
a few seconds to over an hour in length.
Many of my night photographs aim to capture the sense of the passing of
time in a still image, something that I find very fascinating. While others aim to “see” what is not always
obvious to the naked eye. I enjoy using
night photography to explore our relationship to the universe and the continuum
of time, while also, I hope, creating beautiful and captivating images.
I grew up in the Adirondacks and have been fascinated with
photography since a very young age and owning my fist camera, a Mickey Mouse
110. After moving to the Hudson Valley
in 2009 I started taking photography more serious. It was during an overnight workshop on
Bannerman’s Island that my love of night photography was born.
