capturing authentic moments with a documentary feel

My love for photography began at the age of 12—the first time I ever picked up a camera—and my passion for it has only continued to grow. I think of myself as a visual storyteller, because that's what I do through my work. Whether I'm documenting an event or capturing portraits, there's a story being told from the first image to the last. 

My work often centers around portraits, lifestyle, and events, but I’m always open to projects that fall outside of those categories. I love the challenge of learning something new and approaching each shoot with curiosity, intention, and care.

Photography feels meaningful to me in a way few things do. Watching someone's face light up when I show them the back of my camera, receiving a holiday card with my photos on it, helping a shy child come out of their shell during a session, or knowing the images I create will be cherished for years to come—those are the moments that make this work so rewarding.

 

This isn't just a hobby; I've dedicated my education and entire career to photography. I earned my BA in Photojournalism with a minor in Photography from the University of North Texas and have intentionally pursued creative roles that allow me to do what I love every day.

 

I'm currently based in Dallas, TX, with a passion for traveling wherever the work takes me.​ If you’ve made it this far, thank you for being here. I’m grateful to share the work I love, and I hope you enjoy exploring the stories captured throughout my site.
