The Pines

$1,000.00

Yosemite National Park, California 2025

When I photograph nature, I am always looking for the element that will give an image its character. Something that separates it from what already exists. Conditions matter. They define the direction before composition ever does.

As the snowfall began in Yosemite Valley, the forest quickly turned chaotic. Snow filled the air, depth collapsed, and the background dissolved into motion. In moments like this, discipline matters. You have to simplify. To ignore what distracts. To focus only on what carries weight.

I am always thinking about the final print — how the image will live on a wall, how much space it needs to breathe. During the storm, I stripped the frame down completely, removing anything that introduced visual noise, waiting for structure to appear.

Three pine trees stood together, isolated from the rest of the forest. Snow settled heavily on their branches, giving them form and separation against the dark background. The storm softened everything else. The scene reduced itself.

There was a quiet certainty when it happened. Nothing more needed to be added. Nothing needed to be removed.

There is power in simplicity. Some images do not need to be loud to hold attention.

The seven prints are shared across all three sizes, so whichever scale you choose, it is one of seven. When the last print is placed, the image is retired and never printed again.

Pricing follows the edition. Each print placed moves the next one up, so the earliest collectors acquire the work at its lowest price.

Prices begin at $1,000 for the Small print.

The Print

Each print is made as an archival pigment print on Hahnemühle fine art paper, chosen for its depth, tonal range and a surface that rewards close looking. Every print is signed and numbered by hand and arrives with a Certificate of Authenticity recording the title, edition number and production details.

Framing

Bespoke framing is available on request. Tell me about the wall and the room, and I'll put together a frame, mount and finish that suit both the work and where it will live.
