God let me know through nature that He is pursuing me and you with His furious love and I want to share that through photography.

Landscape/wildlfe photography from Grand Rapids, Michigan working on creating a photography program to help refugee children in the Middle East who have been traumatized by the effects of war.

On Labor Day, I ended up going to the Muskegon County Airport because I've never been to that one before and I went to P.J. Hoffmaster State Park since it's been a long time since I've been to that one and I think that's my favorite beach now just because you don't have to walk a long ways to get to the beach, there's no cottages on it, it's more rustic with all the driftwood and dunes, and you can walk forever all the while being by yourself. All the things I love!

Moreover that day, I felt God impressing upon my heart really heavily certain themes. I love that God has given me a heart for nature, photography, neuroscience, therapy, and attachment with Him. I see that those loves all intertwine. So, as I was walking along the beach, I noticed all these lines and patterns in the sand which reminded me of the patterns of rivers in Iceland seen from a drone far above the landscape. As I was mesmerised by these lines taking so many pictures of them, I noticed that they were made by the waves that would push the sand up and make new lines. Every time a wave would come, a new line was formed. I felt like God reminded me of something I had heard awhile back from a therapist or Spiritual Director that said something along the lines of the renewing of our minds is like God's truth washing over our minds and hearts like waves. Just one after the other. Over and over again. As I watched the waves making new lines in the sand, I felt like God showed me that His truth was washing over the old lines in my heart and brain and making new connections. It's like He's washing away the old lies of, "I'm not good enough, no one likes me, I don't measure up", with, "You are My son", "You are worthy", "You don't have to be perfect", "You don't have to get it all right", "Nothing can separate you from My love!"

I believe that God just wants to talk to His kids and He's so patient and loves to tell us the truth, even if He has to repeat Himself over and over again.

Over Labor Day weekend, I went to the muskegon wastewater treatment center and got to see a bunch of juvenile Bald Eagles and I believe the little birds are European Starlings. Both Eagles are juveniles.

An Eye for Eye 8/20/2026

I love watching Great Blue Herons fish, especially when they're super hungry and active. Usually, Great Blue Herons can stand in the water for a very long time and I have to wait with camera and big lens up to my eye as my arms get really tired, but the day I took this photo was a lot easier as this one kept dunking its head and stabbing at fish over and over again and getting little minnows.

Be Still 8/22/2026

As I saw on social media the weather and Lake Michigan's water temperature, I decided to go to Holland anticipating big waves and warm water! When I got there, the wind was really strong and the waves were huge as promised. I had so much fun playing in the waves like I was a kid again and trying to catch a big one to body surf. It felt like when my family and I went to Florida when I was a kid just playing in the waves and having so much fun.

I love this shot because it shows how nature can be paradoxical as the image of the Gull with its wings down and the light shining through them provides peace and calmness over the violent crashing waves of Lake Michigan.

Falling into Grace 8/22/2026

I love this shot as this Gull was landing while the sun was illuminating its wings and its body. It's like it was falling into the light and it makes me think of where I'm at in life right now. How I'm falling into God's light and grace. He's so good and works in our lives when we don't deserve it. He just loves us so much!

So, life has been crazy to say the least. With a new job and just everything changing. Lots of changes, but good changes. God has been moving amazingly in my life as well. I have had time to shoot and I've been taking lots of photos, but haven't had much time to edit and post.

With that being said, I went out last Saturday to Holland when there was amazing clouds over the Lake that were raining way out over the water. The light was amazing and I got over 1,000 photos in around 3 hours! Also, before that at East Paris Nature Park, Great Blue Herons were very active fishing and were very close which provided a great environment for photography!

I hope that you find healing through these photos and that you connect with God as I have when I'm out in nature!

Here is the close up fine art crop of the same photo.

So, I have two crops of the same photo and I really love them both. Every photo has a story and I feel like if I wrote a story for every photo I post, I probably wouldn't end up going to bed at all lol. But this photo is very special to me since I have only seen one or two photos that are similar where the eye is hiding either behind or through the wings as it is here. I have always wanted a shot like that and didn't think it was possible until after I got home from this photoshoot at Holland State Park. I didn't notice I got this shot until I looked at the back of the LCD screen on my camera! I love how nature, art, and creativity keep surprising me!
