Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, my work is heavily influenced by my parents, my compassion for others, and the beauty in the world, which I had the gift of seeing starting at a young age. Since a young age, I’ve had a camera in my hands due to the fact that my father is a professional photographer. I am heavily influenced by the styles and passions of my father (a people photographe
r) and my uncle (a landscape photographer). My focus is almost as much on content and concept as it is on aesthetic while exercising my ability to truly connect with people. I believe that the beauty lies with my subjects and it is my job to capture that and share it with you, my viewers. I function as a journalist, a documentarian, and a creative artist, but above all, a storyteller. In time, I hope to pursue my passion for photography either in the world of journalism or as a wedding and people photographer. My keen eye is a gift as is my ability to bring a human element to all of my work. Storytelling is my study, his practice, and his passion.
