“My goal… is to invite the viewer into my vision, to consider an Ordered World where every building, tree, and street exists in a serene, spiritual calm—a truly beautiful sight. This may be too much of an idealistic view, but I like to think of it as a counter to the pain and weariness of day to day life. The truth of our world is undoubtedly somewhere in the middle of these two notions, but in this moment, may the Ordered World bring you joy and uplift your spirit, as it does for me.”

“I know that for myself, when I see these colors, bright or muted, warm or cool, I find myself in awe of the world around me, even more so than when I capture these photos initially.... If I can help the viewer retain or regain a sense of awe, whether through the pink blossoms on a tree in springtime, a skyscraper through the fog, or the way the light falls on the forest floor, then I will be satisfied.”
