About
I photograph for architects, designers, realtors, brokers, actors, models, celebrities, musicians, and products. I take pride in providing my clients with my best work - often exceeding their expectations.
Photography has been a passion since childhood. It makes me smile, never seems like a job and the best part is I get to meet incredible people in all walks of life.
It's a passion of mine. Passions most often don't seem like work with my experience over the past 12 years in the field. I enjoy all aspects surrounding the process! The most gratifying of all would be delivering the final photographs to the client!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Before the shoot: We discuss your needs, timeline, schedule, and shoot date. We go through everything from style, feel, tone, if applicable the wardrobe, Makeup/ hair, to the delivery of images.
Following the shoot: Every shoot is different with different needs and deliverables. Depending on what we are photographing, I’ll formulate a deliverables schedule based on those needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been blessed to work with great mentors, masters in their field since the age of 21. These mentors I've surrounded myself with have sculped and inspired me to look at the world differently. It that that embeds itself into my work. I like to believe it's viewed differently than others, each represents a story and a moment that would have otherwise been lost in time.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
Every shoot is unique and planned around the customer's needs. With that said each price is built around those needs.
What types of customers have you worked with?
Celebrities, corporations, executives, publications, inventors, architects, brokers, real estate agents, designers, models, actors, and amazing people.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Make sure the photographer's portfolio represents the quality, style, and feel of what you're wanting to capture. Every photographer has a way of looking at the world through the lens and capturing it. A photograph is a frozen moment in time from the perspective of the photographer. It's how they see the world around them. Most often these photographs have a similar signature to them, making the photograph a unique creation in the world.
It's important as a customer to understand this about photographers, to effectively choose one that speaks to you. Most specialize in certain areas. Choose a photographer that speaks to you. Images should give you feeling and make you feel like you're reliving the moment that was captured.
If the images do 'nothing' for you that 'isn't' the photographer you should be choosing.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
-Understand what it is you're wanting to capture, from a creative perspective.
-Know your budget, but also understand in the eyes of a photographer it's their art, every photograph is a part of how they see the world.
-Photographers are artists, they are creatives capturing moments through their eyes in the world. You should know this as every photograph is a piece of their art. They quote projects based on a number of creative factors they know they're going to be required to put into a project.
