I have had a love for photography since the days of disposable cameras. You know, back when you could develop a roll of film for $5? Those were the days.  

There's always been something about being able to keep a moment frozen in time forever has brought me joy. When the moments, people, or pets we love are gone, our connection continues through old photographs. I know this because photography runs in my genes. My dad always had a camera in his hand. Was I annoyed sometimes? Yeah. Am I grateful now? Yes. As I sit going through the mountains of photographs in my childhood home I am forever grateful he took photos of everything, even the mundane.

Over the years, I’ve explored portraits, headshots, event photography, production work, street scenes, pets, and landscapes. No matter what I’m photographing, my goal is the same: to create a space where my subjects feel at ease, safe, and seen. Being in front of a camera takes vulnerability and I will never take that for granted.
