Luminous Gardens

“Luminous Gardens Is a long term ongoing project I began in 2018. I worked from different locations in North America and the Caribbean utilizing local flora and marine elements. I created small scale underwater environments entirely from natural components. They are photographed in sunlight against hand painted backgrounds. The process is simple and organic. Everything is achieved in camera, nothing has been altered in post-production. The result is a series of otherworldly, unreal photographs that offer a vision of the natural world as a realm of enchantment. They are transient moments of unfolding beauty, meditations on the nature of impermanence. Only consciously acknowledging impermanence and our own mortality we will experience life’s depth and intensity to the fullest.”
