Artist's Bio
Kevin found his love for shooting and printing in the mid 1980's
when he took an apprenticeship under a local portrait photographer.
As a teen he learned both the color and B&W darkroom, furthering his
love of the entire photographic process. He continued shooting
throughout high school and college, and then moved to Los Angeles
where he worked extensively in the retail product and fashion industries.

In LA, Kevin’s love for photography expanded while working with
large format systems for several years. He went on to manage a fashion
studio in Santa Monica which broadened his knowledge of the business.

Recently, he has traveled to Mexico, India, and Costa Rica, widening his
photographic passion and vision. Kevin now lives in Seattle, Washington
where he continues to deepen his passion for the photographic medium.

Artist's Statement
How we decide to see this world is an individual choice. My perspectives
and opinions shape my state of being, my relationships and ultimately my
reasons for existing. My views of this world can therefore become my gift
to it or my burden upon it.

When I go out with my camera, I tend to seek out the beauty, essence and
meaning in things where otherwise I’d been unaware. I find that I’m more
captivated and connected with the world around me when my camera is in hand.

For me, photography cultivates a state of being where freedom and connection
dominate constraint and isolation. It’s from this state that I’m in the presence
of something that is greater and more potent than myself. Within that, I find
myself compelled to view the world in ways that gift it, rather than burden it.
This is why I photograph.
