So excited to launch our first Etsy shop of our personal favorite creative photos from around the world. Welcome to our gallery of captured moments — from timeless landscapes to sacred stillness. Here, you’ll find fine art photography that reflects the soul of nature, quiet moments, and the stories behind the lens. Each image is created with care, authenticity, and a deep reverence for the scene it preserves. We invite you to explore these glimpses of the seen and unseen — art meant to connect you to something deeper.

I'm honored to be highlighted in the Kelp Journal.

[KELP JOURNAL] Lowell, your photos are so striking. I think it’s the concentration of color even in--or maybe especially in--the black and white photos. All of the photos are dominated by a deep saturated color that fills the entire frame. I was wondering what your intent was in framing your photo...

I had the pleasure of creating a portrait for my good friend, Hal, once again. I have known him for about 25 years. This great man is now in his 90s. He's a joyful, loving and kind man. So grateful to be a friend to him and his wife, Sonia.
