Below you will find links that contain galleries of all finalized photographs that are part of my growing collection (organized by taxa or project if appropriate). My over-arching goal is to bring awareness and appreciation to the complexities of vertebrate anatomy, development, and evolution. While my primary interest is among fishes, I have a broad interest in the structures and morphologies of all vertebrate taxa. All specimens below were cleared and stained and photographed by myself (unless stated otherwise). Further, the majority of these images have been digitally edited to enhance aesthetic appeal and remove minor blemishes. Some photographs may have been taken using a custom filter (stated), thus changing the way that bone, cartilage, or other structures and tissues are portrayed. If you are interested in purchasing any of these photographs, please visit my store at Fine Art America (also see art prints).
More content will be added as it is finalized and all work is copyright protected. The work below should not be utilized in any fashion without my prior permission. If you are interested in using any of these images for educational purposes or if you would like for me to donate my art to events, please do not hesitate to contact me!
