Giving Back

Supporting Colorado
Nonprofits and the Environment Through Fine Art

As a Denver-based fine art photographer, I’m committed to giving back to the places and people that inspire my work.

I’m a proud 1% for the Planet member, which means I donate at least one percent of my annual revenue to vetted environmental nonprofits.

In addition, each year I contribute prints and resources to nonprofits, community organizations, and mission-driven programs across Colorado—supporting conservation, education, the arts, and efforts that strengthen our communities. My goal is to use my work to create meaningful value and lasting impact where it’s needed most.

    1% for the Planet

    I am proud to be part of 1% for the Planet program, committing a minimum of 1% of my annual revenue to verified environmental nonprofits. This partnership reflects my deep connection to the landscapes I photograph and my commitment to protecting the natural environments that inspire my work.

    Through 1% for the Planet, I support organizations dedicated to:

    Land and water conservation

    Climate resilience

    Environmental education

    Outdoor access and stewardship

    This contribution is made in addition to my artwork donations, allowing my studio to support both Colorado-based nonprofits and environmental organizations worldwide.

    Art Donations for Silent Auctions & Fundraisers

    I partner with nonprofits throughout Colorado by donating limited-edition and one-of-a-kind fine art prints for:

    Silent auctions

    Gala fundraising events

    Donor appreciation nights

    Community benefit fundraisers

    Conservation and outdoor advocacy events

    Arts, youth, and wellness programs

    All donated artwork is exhibition-quality, presented at the same premium standard I offer to collectors.

    Colorado Community Partnerships & Impact

    Over the years, my donated prints have helped nonprofits across Colorado raise meaningful funds for mission-critical programs — from environmental conservation and public lands initiatives to community arts and youth development.

    These collaborations allow my artwork to make a direct contribution to organizations doing essential work across the state.

I give back through my art—supporting the landscapes that inspire me and the communities that care for them.
