Not only did Good Garden Photography win the Silver Award from the Garden Writer's Association as the best e-book, it received the gold as Best Book Overall. Writing about 30 years of garden photography, photo assignments, personal art explorations, and stock photo library. Licensing garden photographs for publications, art prints, and e-books is found at PhotoBotanic.com.
This website serves as my calling card, place to share my favorite photographs from many years as a garden photographer. It has been a thrilling ride, learning from some of the absolute best gardeners, designers, and landscape architects in the business. I have been honored and humbled to visit many of the best gardens in America as I have learned to celebrate plants found there.
I take the fine art of garden photography quite seriously, and feel a responsibility to educate, even change the aesthetic of what we think of in a garden photograph. Good photos lead to good gardens, and with my work, I want to promote success and sustainability through the media.
