Photographer and Retoucher

I am a self taught portrait and lifestyle photographer, with a love for natural light and minimalism. My overall style leans toward editorial and simple.

My work is an expression of what I am most passionate about: human interaction and simplicity, trying to find beauty in everything and everyone.

I believe photography is a journey of discovery, observing and finding  features that make someone (or something) unique and special.

Many photographers share a story of how they started their love of photography at an early age, influenced by a family member or close friend. Mine actually started a little later in life as a freelance photojournalist with local newspapers. The lead photographer took the time to guide and critique me  (often brutally). I didn’t realize then just how important that was to be (Thanks Monique!). My years spent as a photojournalist were extremely rewarding. I grew not only as a photographer but also as a person.

We’re all visual creatures and helping people create their vision is my passion!  We live in exciting times where people all over the world are able to take incredible images and I’m inspired daily by what I see happening.
