Coasts, Forests, Mountains & Changing Light

This portfolio brings together landscapes photographed over many years across Southeast Asia and other regions — tropical coasts and islands, forest lakes, waterfalls, mountains, sunsets and quieter natural scenes.

I am especially interested in changing light, weather and the relationship between land, water and sky. Some images are built around vivid tropical color and open space; others rely on calm atmosphere, reflections, silhouettes, dramatic skies or softer diffused light. The variety of locations and moods is intentional: this is an author travel portfolio rather than a gallery of a single destination.

I am currently based in Nha Trang, Vietnam, and available for landscape, travel and editorial assignments in Vietnam and elsewhere in Southeast Asia.
