Pottery
Wandering through an amazing slot canyon on sacred Navajo land, Brett wanted to capture the artistic shapes of the sandstone that had been carved by flash floods and high winds. At the enterance to this 100′ deep slot canyon featured a sandstone hallway carved from what resembled broken pottery, carved by thousands of years of Mother Natures flash floods and strong winds. “I was immediately captivated by the beauty of the forms of this canyon” recalls Brett. “The sandstone was surreal, as if it were carved by angels. The surfaces were smooth and the colors were amazing.” Brett was in a photographers paradise and took advantage every chance he got. The result of filming the enterance is Pottery and his latest print intoduced to his 2011 Fall Collection.

Fallen Sands
Fallen Sands is a breathtaking look into the heart of Mother Nature’s power and grace. The image, captured in springtime along the Gulf of Mexico, is the product of 10 months of hard work filming this rugged coastal shore. “I kept going back to this beach over and over again” recalls Brett reflecting on the challenge of capturing Fallen Sands. “I knew from the moment I found it that it had the potential to be an amazing shot. That night I traveled there during a calm afternoon and for some reason as the sun began to set two storms collided overhead and all hell broke loose!” Brett’s experience on that beach nearly turned disastrous. The secluded beach offered him little coverage to avoid the intense lighting that crashed around him only minutes after capturing Fallen Sands. He took refuge in nearby mangroves for 45 minutes before the storm moved on and he could hike down the coast back to safer ground. “I’ll never forget my experience filming Fallen Sands… it was definitely worth it.”

Hidden Falls
Hidden Falls showcases the beauty and serenity of the hidden forests of the southeast. With a region of thick growth and humid temperatures this secluded oasis is a great example that beauty can often be found in unsuspecting places.
“I had been searching for a secluded waterfall for some time now.” recalls Brett back from his latest journey. “The search for that perfect shot took me through Northern Florida and Southern Georgia. When I came upon Hidden Falls I was really excited cause the light was soft and diffuse and the greenery was lush after a recent spring rain shower.”
Brett used a long exposure and a sturdy tripod to capture the soft water flowing over moss covered stones. Fallen leaves of orange and yellow help bring peace to the image.

Summer Morning
Summer Morning, captured just before dawn on a beautiful beach in his home state of Florida. Summer Morning captivates you with it’s ethereal, moonlit sky and delicate sunrise illuminating the calm Atlantic surf. The warm, wooden dock gives a sense of place in the image without drawing attention away from the perfect sunrise and the rich darkness of deep space.
“When composing this shot I was originally shooting it as a horizontal.” recalls Brett on his latest image Summer Morning. “I took a step backwards to evaluate my placement and to take in the entire scene when I noticed the crescent moon hovering above the horizon. With only seconds left before sunrise I quickly readjusted my equipment, set my exposure and filmed the final shot with a 30 second exposure. The result was Summer Morning and the latest print to join my collection.”
Summer Morning represents years of work mastering the technical and aesthetic signature of Brett’s photographic style. His advanced knowledge of the science of light allows his images to be both dynamic and realistic in the viewers eyes. This print is an edition of 250 and is expected to sell out quickly.
