A quiet way of seeing.

I’m a lover of surfing, nature, vintage Dior, and slow afternoons that turn into long sunsets. My car is never quite as clean as I’d like—always carrying a little sand from the beach, fur from my pups Hendrix and Jasper, and crumpled receipts from wherever I’ve been traveling, probably a local camera shop.

While words don’t always come easily, photographing people has always felt like second nature.

I started shooting weddings while I was still a student at Art Center, and have now spent over 15 years documenting them—quietly observing, learning, and refining the way I see. What began as instinct has become something deeper: a sensitivity to light, to timing, and to the subtle relationships between people.

I’m drawn to the way love expands outward—the quiet connection between two people, and then the circles that form around them: family, friends, the people who have shaped their lives. These moments are fleeting, but they carry a kind of emotional weight that stays with you.

To me, photography is less about capturing how something looked, and more about preserving how it felt—something you can return to, again and again, over time.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll likely find me surfing, eating pizza at Fluid State, laughing with Justin, or sipping mochas at Prospect. I’m endlessly inspired by fashion, art, and the inner world—drawn to the work of Hedi Slimane, Hilma af Klint, and the language of dreams and depth psychology.
