My photographs are of people, places and spaces of Salem Massachusetts; where I have walked, talked and grew. As other artists have done, I focused my camera on light and colors that capture the presence of surrounding space. My personal relationship with these spaces allows me to get closer than just the camera allows; perhaps revealing more than what is normally observed. Whether the pictures are a celebration of the relaxed energy of a landscape or a melancholy reminder of people and places is the meaning you rest on these images.
