About
Why do I do What I do?
I got into photography when I accidentally signed up for yearbook my Sophmore year of high school. Ever since I fell in love with capturing everything most importantly sports! I use to be an athlete and wish that I was able to get more photos of myself before my injury. I know what it feels like to have that super awesome photo of yourself doing what you love. I want to capture that for all families, because you never know when will be the last time you play the sport you love.
I am in my second year of college at Mesa Community College looking to transfer and get my Bachelors in Sports Journalism at ASU. I've been taking photos for 5 years now, and would love to reach a place to working with athletes, and sports teams.

I enjoy that I can truely stop time for not only athletes, but everyone. I can capture moments for people that people may forget in years on their own, but moments that still hold so much value to them. A family laughing at a really bad joke their dad made. The game winning basket, and a crowds reaction. All these amazing little moments in life my clients, and myself included can look back on and feel amazing all over again.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with new customers I always tell them to create a 'mood board' before the shoot. A collection of images and styles they would like during their shoot. They are always welcomed to bring pets, and loved ones, and listen to their favorite music during the shoot. I typically try to have a consult with my customers before the shoot to go through what will happen during their shoot because no two people are the same.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have two CTE Certificates in Digital Photography, and am working towards a Bachelors in Sports Journalism. I've worked for a professional New Born Photography Company based in the hospitals. And have started working for a proffesional Youth Sports Photography Company. I have freelanced for the 942 Crew at ASU. As well as being the team photographer for the Dobson Marching Band.

How did you get started in this business?
I got started in photography when I accidentally signed up for Yearbook my Sophmore year of highschool.

Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I had the pleasure of photographing the ASU vs UofA Territorial Cup football game. For not being an ASU student yet it was life changing being able to photograph my first Territorial Cup. It really put my skills to the test, and I wasn't let down by the end of the night.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Know their style of editing! If you like moody and dark find a proffesional that shoots and edits in that style. If you like realistic and strong photographs find a proffesional that shoots and edits in that style. Don't ask a realistic and strong proffesional to edit moody and dark because their prices might be cheaper or they are more available.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Can I be flexable with my day and time?
Do I like their style of editing?
