A Whole New Me!


I took Mitche Graf's advice when he said, "You should have a logo, not a font."  So here I am.  The lotus is one of the main Buddhist symbols.  It rises from the mud to become a beautiful flower, and represents the blooming of our true nature.  The red lotus in particular symbolizes the original nature of the heart (hrdaya).  It is the lotus of love, compassion, passion, activity and all the qualities of the heart.  This is both what photographing is for me, and what I can see in people and give back to them through my images.  I show them the beauty of themselves.
