Photography captivates me because it transcends barriers, connecting people through powerful imagery that evokes emotion and rekindles memories. My style balances warmth and subtlety, guiding clients when needed while capturing authentic moments naturally. I strive to represent each client's unique identity artistically and compellingly, believing that true stories emerge when people feel at ease. My journey began at age 10 with a camera, expanded through school yearbook leadership, assisting my photographer father at weddings, and studying fine art and anthropology aspiring to be a National Geographic photographer. After diverse editorial work and hundreds of weddings since 2000, I broadened into corporate and creative photography. In 2023, I opened a studio in San Francisco's StartUp HQ, living in Oakland and eager to collaborate on future projects.
