Was honored to work with the amazing for a special birthday celebration session! She had no modeling experience coming into the session but she absolutely SLAYED!!

In the weeks leading up to the session we went over outfit ideas, posing tips, mood boards and the best ways to prep for this type of photo session. Now make sure to swing by her page and go wish her a happy birthday!

I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since I shot wuth ! Time has been flying by and sadly I didn’t get to do nearly as much shooting this year as I would have liked. I’ve been thinking about dusting the business off again and start back at it once more. It was a ton of work managing the private FB group l, building it up, and posting to it daily but it was immensely satisfying working with those clients!

For December I’m thinking of running a mini-marathon session. Block out a full day and each session includes 1hr of shoot time, up to 3 outfits, and 10 digitals for $300. A perfect holiday gift to treat yourself!

One of my absolute favorite images that I’ve captured. The subject, the light, the space, the EVERYTHING! I have a super fun Christmas session coming up on Sunday and looking to knock out a few more before the year ends so drop me a line!

Finishing this set with a nice and quiet moment of introspection. Next week begins a new adventure and a new set of images. I have some great sessions lined up in August and I’m so excited for what is to come!

Been getting back into the swing of things and shooting bo***ir once more! Had a great group session a few weeks back and I’ve been dropping a lot of images over on my Instagram every Wednesday and Friday.

There have been a few more inquiries that have come through and my pipeline is slowly getting built up once more!

If you’re looking to get some time in front of my lens to celebrate a milestone (or even just to treat yourself), drop me a line and we can setup a time together.

Cheers and be safe everyone!

Being born and raised in Los Angeles I've been able to see some truly beautiful views of the city. I've called it home all my life and while we're still in a pandemic, I was able to safely get around at night to photograph some quiet scenes in an otherwise bustling city. With everything that has recently been going on, I wanted to find some way that I could be an ally to help and support the Black Lives Matter movement. A collection of these photos I've taken will be available for purchase on the site below.

100% OF THE PROFITS FROM THESE SALES WILL GO TO SUPPORT THE NAACP LEGAL DEFENSE AND EDUCATIONAL FUND.

This will run all month and there are multiple print styles and sizes available. Everything from small professional prints all the way up to large stretched canvas so whatever you can do will help out and be donated.

Take care everyone and stay safe!

Born and raised in LA. Still finding ways to be surprised by the city after 37 years.
