“Many of us find that we are in a constant race to quickly get somewhere else, sometimes to the detriment
of looking at where we are.”

For the past twenty plus years Roger has made his home in Plattsburg, Missouri, a rural farming community
north of Kansas City and Smithville Lake.

There are two main focuses Roger concentrates on when presenting his photography.  First, and foremost
is to present photography as an expressive fine art medium.

The second is to show the wonderful views, both large and small, that surround us.  It is within this focus
that an attempt is made to capture images that offer a feeling of tranquility and peace.

Roger’s photography emphasizes the natural ambiance of Northwestern Missouri along with images of his
far-ranging travel destinations.  It offers the viewer an opportunity to visually appreciate many subjects
otherwise missed.  His portfolio consists primarily of floral, animal and landscape subjects.

Roger utilizes a manual film camera to capture his images and predominantly uses color film to fully
emphasize the beauty of the selected subjects.
