Through My Lens | Finding The Sacred In Nature

Through My Lens | Finding The Sacred In Nature

When my father passed, I received his camera. It was a beautiful piece of equipment, and I had no idea how to use it.

Over the years, I learned. Not just how to adjust the settings or find the right light, but how to see. How to wait. How to be present.

Nature became my teacher.

The herons taught me patience, standing still for what feels like forever, waiting for the perfect moment. The eagles showed me perspective, soaring high above, seeing the bigger picture. The otters reminded me of play and connection. Every creature, every landscape, every quiet moment in the forest offered a lesson.

I learned that we are all connected. That trusting nature's gifts and wisdom is deeply healing. That time and space disappear when we are fully in this moment, because this moment is all we truly have.

The Inspired by Nature Collection is born from these moments. Each photograph is a reminder of what nature teaches us: patience, presence, connection, and the sacred beauty that exists all around us when we slow down enough to notice.

Whether it is a canvas on your wall or a mug in your hands each morning, I hope these images bring you back to yourself, back to the present moment, back to the wisdom that nature offers freely to all of us.
