I grew up to the sound of a 1970s Olympus film camera clicking away — my dad behind the lens, me usually in front of it. Photography came early, then naturally. You could say it’s in my blood.

I was born in California and raised between the West Coast and Arkansas — a mix of Cali energy and Southern hospitality. After years of traveling the globe, including time spent living in the Mediterranean city of Málaga, Spain — the birthplace of Picasso (but more importantly, Antonio Banderas) — I’ve now returned to Los Angeles, where I’m currently based.

I’m an explorer and an artist. I believe coffee + brunch builds community. Road trips are a must — especially the days in a 2003 teal VW van named The Wagonacle.

I’m a storyteller (prone to only small exaggerations) drawn to what connects us as humans — how we can be so different, yet deeply the same. Through photography, I try to uncover those threads: the unseen, the overlooked, the shared. My hope is that these commonalities can bridge the gap between an us and them mentality - overtime creating more compassion towards one another.

Whether it’s a wedding, a humanitarian project, or a journey of discovery, my hope is that the images I create feel personal — finding beauty that inspires you beyond what meets the eye.

I often travel across Europe, the U.S., and wherever else my heart calls. If our paths cross, let’s grab a flat white or a glass of Rioja, especially if you swing through LA!
