Something has always drawn me to exotic animals.. Something about how magical and mysterious they are or the way they move, their colors, or the fact that some can live 150 years.. There are so many interesting and beautiful aspects to these creatures and I hope to share some of them through my videos and photographs.
Whether it be in the wild with rare and endangered species or in captivity, rescued animals, or personal pets I am there to capture moments that will help with education and conservation of these wonderful animals.
They hold ties to prehistoric times and it would be a shame to let that become something that is forgotten..

Finca Bellavista is a residential treehouse community in its formative years in the south Pacific coastal mountains of Costa Rica. We are a rustic, yet comfortable, private retreat off the beaten path where owners and limited numbers of guests can explore the natural wonders of the rainforest canopy and enjoy what we like to call ‘treetop Pura Vida’.
Finca Bellavista, while a one-of-a-kind concept, is also in a one-of-a-kind place. The finca as a whole, comprised of more than 300 acres of secondary rainforest and reclaimed pastureland, provides a nearly custom-built backdrop to house the world’s first planned, modern, sustainable treehouse community. Perched overlooking the Golfo Dulce and nurtured by two whitewater rivers, the location of this unique enclave is unmatched in its magnificence and pulses with life. While it feels a world away, Finca Bellavista boasts easy access to some of the country’s most stunning natural assets, like National Parks, isolated beaches and epic mountainscapes. Those with a spirit of adventure will feel right at home amongst the outdoor activities available on-site and nearby.
