For over two decades, I've had the privilege of capturing the beauty, love, and unique stories of people through my lens. My journey began in the film era of 2001, and since then, I've embraced both the evolution of photography and the timelessness of a great photo.

My style focuses on creating a natural, aesthetically beautiful look with an artistic edge. I believe that great photography isn't just about the picture – it's about the experience. I make it a point to help my clients feel comfortable, relaxed, and free to express themselves in front of the camera. That’s when the magic happens – when personalities shine through and moments feel truly authentic.

I started my career with headshots in Los Angeles, expanded to family photography in Seattle, and most recently, I’ve partnered with Stephen Brashear Photography to bring my expertise to wedding photography on Bainbridge Island. I also have a deep passion for capturing high school seniors, helping them celebrate this special milestone with photos that are as vibrant and unique as they are.

Above all, I love what I do – and I want my clients to love their time in front of the camera. From start to finish, my goal is to create not only beautiful images but also a joyful and memorable experience.

I am an award-winning independent photographer and visual journalist based in Seattle, Washington.

My clients have included USA Today, the Chronicle of Higher Education, Getty Images, the Associated Press, New York Times Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Apple, the University of Washington and Bloomberg News Service. I am an Eddie Adams Workshop alumnus and member of the National Press Photographers Association.
