Projects
The core of my photography work lies in documentary assignments. As a research associate and field photographer at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), I am frequently called upon to document major scientific expeditions to the ends of the earth. The following are my most recent projects for WHOI and other clients.

The Polaris ProjectThe core of the Polaris Project is a field course studying arctic system science at the Northeast Science Station in Cherskiy, Siberia (north of the Arctic Circle on the Kolyma River). It is one of the most remote and beautiful places on the planet. But it is also potentially one of the most important. |

Live from the PolesThe polar regions are experiencing unprecedented environmental changes that have significant potential impacts on global climate, ecosystems, and society. Thousands of scientists from dozens of countries focused their attention on the Arctic and Antarctic for two years from 2007-2009 in an effort known as the International Polar Year (IPY). |

Beaufort GyreIce, ocean, atmosphere. These three components constitute the health of the Arctic climate. At the heart of this system is one of the least studied bodies of water on the planet: the Beaufort Gyre, a slowly swirling bowl of icy water north of Alaska ten times the size of Lake Michigan. Recent observations suggest that because of global warming, the natural rhythms of the Beaufort Gyre have been tipped out of balance. |

Shellfish farming"Shellfish aquaculture represents a very sustainable, organic, environmentally positive way of raising protein. The process takes three years during which the quahogs are 'free ranging' on plankton in the water. The result is a hormone and antibiotic free, mineral rich, high omega 3 fatty acid food with a reputation for homeopathic and aphrodisiastic qualities." -shellfish farmer Conrad Geyser. |

Arctic EdgeThis multi-year, multi-disciplinary oceanography project (2002-2004) focused on understanding the flow of water from the Bering Sea onto the Chukchi and Beaufort shelves, and how this water changes as it moves into the deep Arctic basin. |
