DESCRIPTION
This is a real time, real portrait of me in the moment. Happy, filthy, exhausted.
Happy to have my last necessary load of firewood in for the winter. After a year away from my place due to last summer's wildfires and renos that did not get finished in time for last winter I arrived back in the middle of this summer and finished putting in my windows and getting to work on firewood for this winter.
Filthy because the fastest and most easily accessible wood to cut was the burned trees piled up from last year's fires. I was covered in soot. Not just this day, but this was by far the dirtiest day.
Exhausted because filling the woodshed in 2 - 3 weeks is a lot of work for 1 person. For me anyway.
AUTHOR
I live in Kleena Kleene, BC with my two kids, a dog, and now two cats. My passions are exploring the wild places, skiing the wild places, showing the beauty and fun this world has to offer to my kids, and making stuff...furniture, swords and shields (wooden), cabin stuff and eventually a bigger house.
I love all aspects of photography, from the abstract and fine art to the photojournalism, landscape and fantastical. I'm constantly blown away by how other people see things, interpret them and artistically portray them. My photography is very much a real glimpse into my life and travels and the world I pass through and spend time in.
