— I have been practicing photography for nearly 20 years.
— My love for photography began in high school where I processed my own black & white film.
— Though I now shoot digitally, I'll always love to emulate film's depth + quality.
— I started as a retoucher before I was a photographer. I retouch every client's image.
— I try to bring humor, candidness, kindness & fun to my sessions.
— I’m also an agency-represented model. I use my experience in front of the camera to help pose my clients.
