About
For all photo and video needs, hire the real deal without breaking the bank.
I truly learned from the best, working as a full-time portrait photographer in Phoenix, Arizona from 2015 to 2018. I've shot weddings, school photos, concerts, graduations, pets, sporting events, and headshots. I bring an expert understanding of visually theory: lighting, framing, backdrops, photoshop, and all of the other things that make your portraits stunning and your memories come to life.
I've worked on countless television and film productions from 2015 to 2020, including well known sitcoms and Netflix series, in a variety of roles including video editing, camera department and behind-the-scenes photography.
I have a Bacherlor's of Science in Cinema and Photography from The Park School at Ithaca College, a school renowned for it's Media Production program.
Photography and filmmaking is creating something tangible from memories that may otherwise be lost. It's playing with light and color to influence emotion. This approach goes for all my work, no job too big or too small, I guarantee you will love the end product.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Reach out via email or cell, I will get back to you promptly to go over details. Rates very based on hours, location, and turnaround time. Generally you can expect your photos or video within two weeks from the shoot.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
My rate is 50/hr for on-site photography or videography, and 25/hr for post-production: photoshop and video editing.
As one example, you could expect a headshot session providing about ten or twelve finalized photos (two hours on-site, two hours retouching) to cost $150.
As another example, you could expect a wedding providing about one hundred finalized photos (six hours on-site, eight hours retouching) to cost $500.
The number of photos provided and hours worked varies on a case-by-case basis. Videography hourly rate is the same as still photography, but you can expect video to be more time consuming overall.
How did you get started in this business?
I started college studying journalism but quickly realized I was more passionate for the technical and creative aspects of visual media.
After spending four years making student films, and a semester in Los Angeles, I moved out west and found a job at a professional photo studio in Phoenix, Arizona. From there, I returned to LA in 2016 and worked full-time as a freelance Production Assistant, as well as continuing my side gig as a freelance photographer and videographer. In 2018, I got a more stable job at home in western New York on a university A/V team, which is where I work today.
What types of customers have you worked with?
From kindergarten school photos, to network TV sitcoms, and everything in between.
