Professional Life:

I became a portrait photographer because of a found thrill in capturing the inner beauty humans possess and the challenge of an ever changing subject. No two individuals are the same in physical appearance or personality. The challenges created by having to capture these unique variances between individuals is the most exciting part of my career. I enjoy all types of portrait photography but especially love capturing portraits that express individuality, regardless of the type of portraiture I am shooting. I always tailor my shots around the model in the shot to cultivate human individuality and uniqueness. Oh, and by the way, I call everyone a model!

For Fun Photography:

Outside of my professional portrait photography life, I love taking photos of nature, cars, and friends in their day to day life. One of my current projects is to create a summer montage video of my friends and myself interacting with each other on a day to day un-staged basis. The main focus of this video is to help build my friend’s DJing career and to save all of his crazy awesome performances from this summer.

Hobbies and Interests:

Outside of photography, I am an avid car enthusiast and entrepreneur. I spend the majority of my time when I am not photographing, attending car meets in the North East United States and road tripping with friends and other creative artists. It is amazing how many people you can meet in today's world and how friendly and social everyone can be. I can not wait to connect with you and learn more about your interests during your shoot!

One of my most inspirational boudoir photographers is Michael Sasser. I have also learned a substantial amount of information from watching how he shoots.

Since I was a child I have looked up to Ansel Adams with great awe. A lot of my earlier work was greatly inspired by him and as thus consists greatly of landscape photography.
