Short Bio
I was born in England, spent much of my childhood in Iran, and attended a British Boarding School before emigrating to the USA. I am colorblind, but love and have been inspired by great Classical and Impressionist painters. I have two adult children, neither of them are colorblind.
Statement
My relentless drive, as a colorblind artist, is to find beauty and truth, and show my vision of that through photographic art. Many people have provided their feedback to help me calibrate my use of color. The work is not an exact replication of what I see (my eyes see mainly yellows, and a narrow band of blue) but more an interpretation of what I have found wonder in, presented in my unique way and shared with those who experience the full spectrum of color in their daily lives.
Each movement of the shutter snatches the essence of either a soul, a scene, or a feeling in a moment. Once that has been trapped, it is up to me to make it the very best version of itself, as I see it, and then share it with everyone.
I hope this work, like all photography, shows that, though we all see things differently, the world is a magnificent place in an infinite number of ways, no matter who is doing the looking.
