Oh, to be free! To really live life to its fullest. Dogs spend much of their time confined to fenced yards, crates and leashes. When given the chance to be free, they embrace the opportunity with the fullest level of action. Playful, carefree, and full of reckless abandon. I admire and envy their high level of energy. My images seek to capture the expressive spirit of each animal through gesture and motion. I'm less concerned about what a dog looks like, and far more interested in showcasing the essence of that unabated joy.
