Quiet Company
There’s a hush that settles in when deer appear—a softness that rewrites the air. This collection captures those small, reverent moments where wildness allows itself to be seen without alarm. Whether grazing, watching, resting, or simply standing still in the forest filtered light, these deer inhabit the edge of things: forest and field, alert and relaxed, vanishing and present. To photograph them is to be invited into a space where silence says everything.
These moments don’t shout—and that’s what makes them linger. In the quiet gaze of a fawn or the still alertness of a resting pair, there’s something ancient, tender, and exact. The deer don’t pose. They exist. And in witnessing them, the camera becomes less about control and more about permission—to slow down, to soften, and to listen to the spaces in between.
