JAZZ Photograph - Limited Edition of 3

Forces of nature speak to my soul. Ever since I learned that nature is extremely sensory intelligent and that she will outlive human beings, I am in awe by her power. Her courage, her will to survive and her unstoppable improvisation to thrive and survive, has become the theme I work with. In nature I seek signs of hope, of empowerment and the sheer willpower to live, often against all odds. This natural power touches my soul deeply. Nature doesn’t lie, she’s always authentic and we can learn a lot from her. For 20 years I have been a photo editor for newspapers and magazines. I left photography and worked as an independent couples counselor for nearly a decade. During that time I became intrigued about how important being in nature is to a stressed soul. I wrote a book about how to use nature to gain self confidence and become authentic. I started to miss photography and decided to close my practice and take up my camera to seek out nature’s lessons and capture them the way I see them. I am convinced that when we open up to nature's solutions for life's complications, we will rediscover our authenticity and what life is truly about.
