your color is amazing! the details of the butterfly and the color coordination of it all just sings. and there’s something captivating about that fourth one…leaves enough in and out for me to stop and think a little.

you are so amazing at creating a world, telling a story, even with one image. every one of these is so perfect, fresh, special, by itself, and then together as diptychs, they are such a complete picture. your colors and light are magnificent, and you are so creative. just fantastic.

Karen Porter - Beautiful! Crazy reflections of beauty. I love the color one with her entire view in the reflection. Gorgeous.
Laurie Schultz - Beautiful work! Your color images always leave me speechless. The colors in the water are stunning!
Jennifer Capozzola - I love them both, but the color one feels like it is the opening scene to a movie! Or the front cover of a book. There is such a story there!
Carrie - Gorgeous senior portraits! Love the reflections!
pamela joye - i was taken aback by these on many levels; that second one leaves me utterly speechless in all its enigmatic glory. i’d love to see if you do more of these.
