I’m a Brooklyn-based photographer originally from Hollywood, Florida. I moved to New York in 2003, but my journey with photography began much earlier. My first camera was a Polaroid Swinger, a gift from my parents that set me on this path. Growing up, I spent hours going over the blueprints of the custom homes my father built, which sparked my fascination with design and architecture long before I studied it formally at the University of Florida.

It wasn’t until I went back to school at The Southeast Center for Photographic Arts that I truly found my voice in photography. I fell in love with the darkroom, black-and-white images, and the way light shapes everything—from buildings to faces to emotions. After graduating, I moved to Miami Beach, where I assisted fashion photographers and became enamored with the creative freedom that fashion offered.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me drawing inspiration from film, music, and the stories they tell. I’m also a bit of a design geek, with a love for architecture and graphic arts that seeps into my work. I spend my free time traveling, surfing when I can, and always chasing that next perfect shot.
