“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire.”
-Edith Sitwell

Cafe Hollander, a fantastic grand cafe in the style of those found in the “Benelux” region of Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, on the Winter Solstice. Located on Downer Avenue in Milwaukee’s East Side neighborhood.  I’ve been trying to capture a particular moment and mood at this place for a while.  This comes close, but it is not quite what I want…yet.   I’m going to keep trying!

Emotion. Mood. Feelings. This is what I capture through my photographs. Whether it is landscapes, architectural elements, still life, or macros - it is a very personal journey as my own fears, triumphs, beliefs, and shortcomings are exposed with each photo. In the end, it is all about telling compelling stories.
