Introduction: I'm a self-taught creative photographer. Riots of color, adventure, late nights, sun rises, lonely roads, and fierce new friends inspire me. I shoot RAW DSLR, but also a lot of film and instant. I shoot 100% natural/available light, so I am quick on my feet in unpredictable situations. My goal is that my images feel how that moment felt: that they are a testament to the vibrancy of the experience, and that my subjects get to see the beauty I see in them.
I love the moment when I click the shutter and what I see makes me hold my breath. Couples in love, teenagers dancing, an artist, a musician, a kid pausing for a moment, celebration, community, quietness... When someone's eyes shift or a crowd surges forward and you know you captured that vibrantly and perfectly.
I work throughout the Pacific Northwest especially Seattle, Olympia, and Portland areas.
