I was raised in a house where my mother, her parents and my father's mother were all artists. My only sister, is a professional artist. My father is a photographer and I grew up developing pictures with him in the basement of our house. I attended FIT for advertising design and learned there too how to develop film and create interesting compositions. I also love to paint and I am currently workin
g on opening up an adult art studio in Long Island. I have always fallen in love with places for their amazing locations and unique things about them like in South Carolina I love the spanish moss trees and the dolphins, alligators, and the Long Island beaches where I spent this summer in Long Beach and Atlantic Beach. The sunsets were breathtaking and there was always some interesting element to be amazed about. Taking pictures of my family (mostly the kids) also became great because I waited for those moments with them just being funny and natural (not posed at all). This is what I like to do. i got my first official gig taking pictures on 9/13 of a surfing shoot in Lido Beach. I was totally in my element being where I love to be watching people do what they love to do. Surfing drew me into to seeing people in action doing what they love and knew i wanted and needed to be a part. After I got my photos back and was amazed by the photos I sent them out to the person who asked me to take them and he said "Cowabunga!" and told me it was money well spent. So I like to play and stay until I get my shot and when it happens it is truly magical. Hope you give me a chance to show you my stuff and spread the word that I am ready to get out there and cherish the opportunity to create those memories for you.
