For most of my life, I've had some kind of camera in hand. As a kid, it started with a disposable camera my mom bought me to take on vacation. I snapped a photo of a roadside waterfall during a rest stop, and when I picked up the prints, the developer had stuck a coupon to the back of that particular photo along with a note that said, "Great shot!" That note was the bridge that connected photography to art in my mind, and I've kept it in a box of keepsakes for over 30 years. Since then, I've enjoyed exploring the realm of photography and portraiture, seeking the beauty in both the mundane and the extraordinary.

In addition to technical skills honed over time, I firmly believe that the most beautiful photos come from genuine connections. This means that I take the time to understand my client's personality, style, and vision. My goal is to make every photoshoot feel like hanging out with a friend - as I tell people: Without you all, I'm just a lone weirdo with a camera!
