I'm an LA, California-based photographer who regards every photo shoot as a new opportunity to create something more unique or better than I have before. I’m always looking ahead and have goals that I'm working towards.

Lighting is everything – without light there would be no photography, so learning how to control light has always been a mission of mine. I love being able to manipulate and sculpt scenes, faces and bodies with light. It’s amazing what small adjustments in position or power can to do the overall impact of the mood or impact of the picture.

My favorite type of shoots are the ones where I can do whatever I want! It’s great when a client or editor trusts me enough to come up with something fun, creative or kinda crazy, either with lighting or with the overall concept. I love a good challenge!
