East Coast trained. LA based. Built on thousands of hours behind the lens — working with world-class talent, elite modeling agencies, and the kind of clients who don't settle for good enough.

From
Before Los Angeles, there was New York. And in New York, there were agencies — Wilhelmina, Ford, Freedom — the kind of names that don't bring in just anyone. Working alongside those rosters meant showing up every single time with precision. No margin for an off day. No room for average lighting.
Hundreds of individuals. Thousands of hours. Every environment you can imagine.
That body of work — developing model portfolios, shooting campaigns, navigating studios and rooftops and raw natural light — became the foundation. Not a formal education. A real one. The kind you earn by figuring out how to make someone look extraordinary when the conditions aren't cooperating.
That same eye is what I bring to every client now. Whether it's a leadership team that needs to project confidence, a brand that needs imagery with actual feeling, or a wedding that needs to be remembered the way it actually felt — the standard doesn't change.
I'm new to the Valley. Sherman Oaks is home now. But the work that got me here was built over years in some of the most competitive creative markets in the world. That doesn't go away when the zip code changes.
Lighting, posing, styling — the three things most photographers guess at. Years spent inside fashion and beauty photography built an instinct for these that goes well beyond technical knowledge. You'll see it in the images.
Corporate clients need someone who understands the room. I've spent time in professional environments and I know what it means to work efficiently, communicate clearly, and deliver on time. No hand-holding required.
Working with people is a skill as much as photography is. Knowing how to make someone relax in front of a camera, how to read a room, how to bring the best out of whoever is in front of the lens — that's what separates good photos from great ones.
