I’ve spent over 25 years behind the camera. From indie backlots to backstage at New York Fashion week. From the mechanics of headshots to the poetry of a maternity session. I’m always humbled at the wild luck that landed me here.

Always chasing one thing, honesty. It's hidden in the unposed laughter. In your private jokes. It's when that frozen face melts and you grin without thinking. It's the truth winking at me.

Now I’m supposed to take this ugly bag of snakes ~ my credentials ~ and lay them out straight for you, but first let me tell you what I believe. That might be the only thing worth a damn when choosing who's gonna shoot your memories. 

Your 20th wedding anniversary. 

Your son’s graduation. 

Your daughter’s sweet sixteen. 

Or the family trip you never want to forget. 

These moments will outlive me. Taped to fridges. Printed in books. Living on your walls. 

That leaves this heavy responsibility for me to document something honest and real. 

So I take too many photos, I try too hard. And we laugh. Oh boy do we laugh … we run wild and forget we’re grown. 

So when you look back, every tiny detail becomes so vividly clear. You remember the magic. You remember the laughter, and you remember how joy snuck up on us.

That’s the hope. The goal. That you’ll feel even a sliver of that magic when you look at the photos ten to twenty years from now.

I carry this honor on my shoulders every time I pick up my camera. 

So far so good.

Oh, and here is a short list of my professional accolades that I am particularly proud of:

I have photographed thousands of artists for RAW Natural Born Artists. My work has been published in Cosmopolitan UK, Elle, Swoop, and Vogue Italia. And I have been lucky to work with clients like Cedar Sinai, USC Alumni, and Art Heart Fashion. On Maui, I hold a 5 star rating on Airbnb experiences with nearly 400 glowing reviews.
