Originally from New York and currently working in Los Angeles, I graduated from The Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan, with a BFA in Photography and a Minor in Art History. Afterwards, I moved to LA to start my career in photography, which expanded to short form video, producing, and creative directing.
With my knowledge of vintage fashion, films, and history, I'm well suited for stylized concepts. My Cinematic Portraiture adds a filmic and timeless quality to any project.
Today, I'm working behind the scenes on film sets, at events, or at the homes of a variety of celebrities, talent, and clients. My on-set experience, which requires accurate but accelerated photographing to capture the ambiance before it’s gone, makes me a welcome bolt of lightning with a natural sense of urgency. If there's only ten minutes to get the shot, hold onto your shorts.
In my personal projects, I'm drawn to subject matter that is synchronized. In a divided world, there is a miracle quality to watching a group of people work together to create something beautiful and achieve a difficult feat. Keep an eye out for my long term documentary projects on Burlesque dancers, the Synchronized Swimming team The Aqualillies, and recently, the Mexican rodeo sport, Escaramuza.
After growing my business in LA for 9 years, I'm now available for work in both New York and Los Angeles.
When I’m not working, I’m practicing martial arts and drinking coffee, but never at the same time.
