I recently had the honor of being featured in Golden Isles magazine in an article about photographing the night sky. The Georgia Coast and its beautiful night skies are an endless source of wonder for me. I've braved the late hours and sand gnats so you don't have to. Click on any of the images below to bring some of the wonder into your home... no bug spray required.

East Beach Rising Moon

$65.00 - $300.00

Have you watched the full moon rising over the ocean at East Beach on Saint Simons Island? It's like a fairy tale. It's a moment you can't capture with your cell phone, but you'll always remember it. The scent of the salt air on the coastal Georgia breeze. The grit of the sand between your toes. Your lover's hand in yours, maybe the giggles of your children playing nearby. Nights on East Beach are full of sweet memories. Bring those memories home and hang them on the wall. Let the moon illuminate them. Listen for the waves. Can you hear them?

Coastal Georgia Super Blood Wolf Moon Eclipse

$65.00 - $300.00

Amazing night skies over Brunswick, Georgia: the lunar eclipse of January 2019 fortunately occurred on a clear night for our area in coastal Georgia. Sprawled on my back, clothes smelling of smoke from our bonfire, I shot a series of images of the moonover 5 hours to capture the wonder of our solar system in motion. May this image bring to you the awe I felt witnessing the event.
