What I Do

What I Do *
I split my photography between paid work and personal projects, but the two are more connected than they might seem. One keeps me sharp, teaches me to solve problems, and helps me make strong pictures under pressure, the other keeps me curious and gives me room to follow ideas that I am passionate about.
In both cases, I’m chasing pictures that feel authentic, human, and important. I’m drawn to color, texture, story, small details, good light, and everyday moments that feel bigger than they should. That’s the stuff that keeps photography fun for me.
From the Blog
Starting November 1st, I’m spending a year shooting through every “film” from The Archetype Process using my Nikon D850 and Fujifilm X100V. I’ll be sharing weekly photo dumps of everyday life, family moments, and little things that catch my eye. It all begins during an especially meaningful fall for our family, as we welcome baby Vally and soak up the season we love so much.
