Why leica?

I have been shooting only with Leica cameras for the past seven years, drawn to their precision and the ability of their lenses to render scenes with an almost cinematic quality. Leica’s philosophy of intentionality—of slowing down and truly seeing—resonates deeply with my own approach. Through my lens, I explore the tension between order and chaos, clarity and ambiguity, memory and reality. Finally it plays well into my military background where we are taught to travel light, bring the best equipment available and most importantly it has to be reliable, all qualities I have found within my Leica experience.

All images on my site have been shot with Leica Cameras.
