My Story
I bring storytelling to life.
I’ve been an artist since elementary school. Painting, drawing, ceramics- you name it, I enjoyed it. High school introduced me to film photography, I was hooked. I still remember the darkroom and fussing the film into the reel. I can smell the developer and hypo, the chemicals it took to develop and agitate an image onto the paper. Not to mention the patience I took experimenting with the enlarger for the correct exposure. That was 1998.
A few years passed and I studied photography at Chapman University in Orange, CA. I then packed my bags and traveled to Florence, Italy to focus on art history and photography. I’m telling you this because I can still see the influence of this time in my work. In 2006 I bought my first DSLR and self taught digital photography and photoshop.
Shortly after moving from California to Oregon in 2006 I started my own company. I’ve worked with countless of people bringing their vision to life. Companies who need to images illustrating their brand, big firms looking to streamline new agent portraits, people getting engaged and planning weddings, and families raising children. My work has led me to meet countless individuals and travel up and down the West Coast, Europe and even South America.
My clients are often surprised.“I can’t stop looking at the pictures!” There within lies my goal, for my work to to capture the beauty in life.
