Welcome!

 


Thanks for stopping by. Use the links on the right to navigate through my work. I still have a ton of work to do on here, so expect some updates soon. 

A little about me...

       I love people. I love everything about what makes a person an individual. Messy hair, freckles, wrinkles and crooked teeth are things that I find appealing in my subjects. Imperfection is beautiful and is what makes us who we are.
    Richard Avedon used to put his subjects in front of a blank background and focus in on their face and features, all the while interviewing them as he took their portraits. His photos as a result are raw and real. This is the type of photography I admire. I'd much rather take a picture of someone in a white undershirt with little to no makeup, than create a whole shoot around making somebody into something they're not. 
    Of course, there are times when it is fun to get artistic and create a fantasy photo shoot, but for most of the time, I want people to be themselves, so I can capture that personality on film and show my subjects how naturally beautiful and amazing they are. 
    Okay, enough blah blah. I hope you enjoy my photos.

XO
