BOOKS
Photographing a whole book is an education in itself. Seeing well and communicating on that scale is an immersive and life changing experience. I will forever see the world through trees and shrubs, silver plants and sustainable practices.
As a lifelong book lover, it is a tremendous honor to have been commissioned by such fine publishers as Houghton Mifflin, Little Brown & Co. (Bulfinch Press), Storey Publishing, Rodale and Timber Press to be sole photographer for these 6 books.
The Homeowners Complete Tree & Shrub Handbook

Not every tree and shrub you could buy, just the best, most problem-solving and beautiful ones. Practical advice from a landscape pro and photos that reveal each plant’s charm, accurately portray what they look like and show how real-life gardeners across the country have used them in home landscapes. The subtitle says it all.
