I have been a photographer for over 15 years and I enjoy capturing the beauty my eyes see through my lens. I enjoy hanging out and learning from other artist and always looking for collaborations with other artist, stylist, models, and anyone willing to learn as well. Please feel free to contact me.

I take pride in seeing beauty everywhere I look. I see the world in snapshots and 100% believe a woman does not have to be naked to be beautiful. I enjoy classic beauty and getting to know models who are willing to laugh and have fun during shoots. I enjoy posing and teach posing to newer models and even some experienced ones. I enjoy giving direction to further my vision but I also love feedback and collaborating with others is a lot of fun to me.

I mostly do paid portraits and weddings, but occasionally in a new town I like to work and do some TFP with select models. I enjoy working with newer models who are eager to expand their portfolio as well as some experienced models who have an idea or addition they would like to add to their portfolio. If you are looking to get in touch with me, please do so through Instagram as I am not on here as often.

If you have seen my work you know, I pride myself on clarity and mastering my camera. I am not a fan of blurry images or photographers who don't want to grow. Some of you need to grow, have you seen some of your images (eye roll here). Really, a lot of you models need to stop accepting to work with everyone who claims to be a photographer. Yikes. I don't believe in everyone gets a trophy. Work hard, strive to be better than you were yesterday, treat everyone with respect, but the highest form of flattery is truthfulness. Be truthful.

If you made it this far you deserve to hear me rant.
1. Not everyone who has or owns (even expensive cameras) can take a photo or can be a professional photographer. There IS such a thing as bad photography, and there is A LOT of it. If you see a photographer and ALL he/she has is half naked women on their page, their skill may be good, but no real photographer respects the ones that ONLY are smut peddlers.
2. Same applies to models. Just because guys pay attention to you at a bar and you've posed for a few of the above mentioned photographers, it doesn't make you a model. Are you making a living as a model? What magazines have you been in...
3. Published!! If you've been in an Instagram magazine I wouldn't call yourself published. By "Instagram Magazine" I am referring to the thousands of so called magazines where you submit your "work" and you are NOT paid by the publication. Some of those post the worst photographers and models. Believe me, I fell for it a few times myself. You're not a "published model" in the professional sense because you're photographer took a picture of you in a fairy sprite outfit in the woods and an Instagram Magazine (pamphlet, which is all they really are) printed it off.
