Themes of reciprocity and symbiosis often weave their way through my work. Whether investigating bioluminescent bacteria in the oceans or refugia in forests, I am pulled toward these examples of cooperation and mutual support for the greater good. #artsci #ecology #environmentalphotographers #art

This week I camped in the shadows of three different active volcanos; Newberry Caldera, Mt. Hood, and Mount St. Helens. At each of these places, I sensed the potent, seismic forces that lay beneath. As I created images, I pondered the ways in which one can capture radical change in a still frame.

I am excited to share the news that the Women's Environmental Photography Collective's exhibition, Searing, opens this week at CMU.
How does one describe the heat of raging wildfires, soaring temperatures, and the rage over corporate greed that degrades the environment for profits? Searing.
