Tall Oaks

“Tall Oaks From Little Acorns Grow" is inspired by the 300-year-old oak trees that live behind our Northern Virginia home and time spent with my son in the great outdoors. It shows a variety of photographic techniques and a blend of environmental portraits and natural elements. Its purpose is to promote discovery, playfulness, and connection and to tell a story of how we experience the world while camping in our backyard. The project began when he was two-years-old and continues today as a perpetual labour of love.

A selection from the portfolio titled “Backyard Camping with Leo” won the Professional Series in Storytelling at the 21st Julia Margaret Cameron Award for Women Photographers.
