BIO
I believe in quality over quantity.
I am a photographer who thinks like an artist and works with integrity. I know the best photographs evoke emotion and trigger curiosity. I believe in the power of portraits to illicit interest, preserve love, and transform communities. I value the printed image & its ability to infuse sentiment, style & spirit when displayed artfully. I’m inspired by the ethereal richness of the human race … all cultures, ethnicities and ways of life.
