Thanks for stopping by….
Laurence is an artist and a visual storyteller with instinctive design and creativity sensibilities. Photography allows him to embrace his love of nature, people, and the urban landscape. When alone in the wilderness, these moments of meditative stillness add an extra dimension to what he sees through the lens.
