Let's talk
/ Behind the camera

I watch. I wait. Then the real thing happens.

I'm a lifestyle photographer based in the Pacific Northwest. I don't direct scenes — I find the ones already unfolding in front of me.

How I work

Golden hour is where people look most like themselves.

I work almost entirely in natural and golden-hour light — not for the aesthetic, but because that warmth loosens people. When the light is right, the guarded version goes away.

— On a session

Sessions run unhurried. I keep a wide frame, stay quiet, and let you settle into being yourselves. Most clients stop noticing the camera within fifteen minutes.

Forget I'm there.

That's when the images happen — a hand reaching out, a glance mid-sentence, a kid bolting across the frame. Unscripted and entirely yours.
