About

Photography has changed my life and revolutionized the way I view the world.

My camera and lenses are an extension of my eye and vision. As I look at the world I see the highlights and shadows, the glorious rim lighting, and the vast spectrum of color tones. It allows me to use these attributes to see the world with a boundless flow of creating stories with images.

I started my photography journey in 2016 in a magical place, the Red River Gorge in Eastern Kentucky. A place full of adventure and challenge through my primary love, rock climbing. I consider the Red home. A place where I have space to grow, develop, and persue my dreams.

My favorite subject matter to photograph is people. The best moments I capture are when people are truly present, the moment when they are feeling and connecting with a genuine and raw emotion. I am inspired when I witness those beautiful and vulnerable moments.

A skill of mine that helps set me apart from other photographers is my ability to connect with and understand you on an deep level which allows me to create a space and environment where you can feel comfortable and empowered to experience that raw emotional moment. I pride myself on the effort I put into creating a high quality product that not only satisfies my clients but redefines what they believed to be phenomenal.

The styles of photography that I specialize in capturing that raw emotion are active lifestyle photography, individual portraits, and couple portraits. My active lifestyle work currently includes rock climbing, yoga, and fitness. My individual portraiture includes lifestyle and head shots, my couples work includes engagements and coming soon, weddings.

Rock climbing has introduced me to travel as well as the growth and expansion of self awareness that comes from experiencing new and different groups of people. For the past 4 years I have been living minimally and traveling as much as I can to gain life experiences and rock climb the best way I know how. I’ve lived out a tent and my car for the majority of that time, in the heat of the summer, the cold of the winter. It makes me feel alive.

I have recently started to set down roots in Bend, Oregon.
