More often than not you will find me underwater, but sometimes I like to dry out and explore our topside natural world. Wildlife is all around us if you know how to move quietly and be patient. Whether it is mountains, deserts, jungles, or rivers, I strive to capture images of some of the locals!

While I have a significant amount of image options on this page it is nearly impossible for me to list every one I've taken. If there is a certain plant or animal you are looking for please reach out! There is a chance I have it or could get it in the future.

If you have questions or would like a custom size please send an email to Jdillaman92@gmail.com, since everything is printed in-house and hand stretched/matted as ordered I am able to do nearly any size you would like!

Please note that the image you will receive is only within the white borders. The blurred edges are just an effect I had to apply due to image ratio requirements on the website.
