Freelance Photographer

My interest in photography sparked at a young age with my grandfather’s Nikinos 35mm camera. After taking courses in high school, I knew I wanted to pursue this art and graduated with a degree in commercial photography. While my specialty is fine art nature with a focus on waterscapes and landscape, I also excel in commercial and product photography.

My passions in life are photography, outdoor adventure, travel and surfing.

My dream in this life is to merge my passions while expressing my creative artistry through photography. 

What excites me is the adventure of capturing the perfect shot in the natural elements ebbing and flowing with the earth’s timing and lighting, scaling rocks for the best vantage point or chasing the swell for that epic surfscape shot.

It’s what makes me feel alive, present and grateful and for those simple reasons, that is why I love to do it and am in pursuit to make this a way of life.
