“Wonder” is a visual odyssey into the heart and soul of places I treasure and find inspirational. I set out to capture the sense of wonder I feel when experiencing a place for the very first time, the excitement of the unknown, the awe of a mystical and breathtaking landscape. Through my lens, with long exposure photography and intentional camera movement techniques, I reveal my personal connection with special places in a literal and abstract sense. This series is my interpretation and appreciation of nature and the places that hold special meaning.
