They say a picture is worth a thousand words—yet for me, each photograph begins as a quiet poem in the making. Long before the shutter clicks, my eyes and heart are drawn to a moment’s fragile truth: the fold of light over a hillside, the patient stillness of water, the unexpected choreography between shadow and sky.
Photography slows me down in the same way writing does. I linger in the frame, listening for a whisper, noticing the way time pauses when beauty feels near. These images are not meant to replace words, but to deepen them—to open spaces where language bows in reverence, and seeing becomes its own form of storytelling.
Here, in 1,000 Words , you’ll find captured instants from the paths I wander: the rural quiet of the Finger Lakes, the tender details of creation, the eloquence of ordinary things. I offer these photographs as windows—each one holding a thousand possible stories, waiting for you to step inside.
