Discover the Wild

The Rocky Mountains

Symbols of extreme rugged beauty across the North American continent, these mounts are as awe inspiring as they are imposing. The wildlife there follows many of the same rules, having to be as rugged as the mountains themselves to survive.

Amur Tigers

The Amur Tiger is an icon of the rugged Asian Far East and is at risk of disappearing. This species deserves as much of a spot on this earth as any other, and groups like the Amur Tiger Conservation Project work diligently to help protect this species. A portion of any proceeds from prints of this collection will go back to the conservation of this wonderful species.

Wolf Park 2021

The Grey Wolf is an iconic species that has conflicted with humans for millennia. This species deserves as much of a spot on this earth as any other, and groups like Wolf Park in Indiana work diligently to help protect this species. A portion of any proceeds from prints of this collection will go back to the conservation of this wonderful Species.

Cataloochee 2020

The return of an iconic species to an equally iconic landscape. The Elk of Cataloochee run wild, much like their ancestors of over a century ago. I went to capture one of their most wild moments, the Rut. Along with Elk, American Black Bears and Beautiful Scenery greeted me.

Kankakee Sands

The return of a king is always a joyous occasion. Especially so for the American Prairie. Kankakee Sands is a Nature Preserve in Northern Indiana, where they’ve actively returned Bison to the Prairie, along with actively restoring large tracts of the once massive grass and wetland ecosystem that came before Human Development. Over 400 Species call this area home!

Wesselman Woods

The largest tract of Old-Growth Forest within the State of Indiana is a unique area of land. This 1km squared area tract of lowland forest is known as Wesselman Woods, and is completely surrounded by the City of Evansville. It is a Mecca for wildlife in the city area, yet faces challenges everyday in management of these species.

Zoos Around the US

Though not as arduous to visit as many other locales, properly created Zoos can open a window into animal behavior, and species that may be extremely difficult to photograph in the wild. These animals serve as important ambassadors for conservation of the wild spaces they and many other species require to survive.
