Katlyn Lacoste, Ohanapecosh, Mount Rainier National Park, March 2022: beauty among decay.

Ralph Waldo Emerson said "the soul in man is not an organ, but a light... a light shines through us upon things, and makes us aware that we are nothing, but the light is all." My task as a photographer is to capture light in the form of digital pixels; but my task as an artist is to capture a glimpse of the soul shining through. I focus on figure photography, mostly in nature, with themes of reconnecting with that part of us that is natural and wild. My work also strives to represent diversity in all forms, and to represent the beautiful diversity of human sensual experience.
