Photographer. Storyteller. Adventurer.
I live for the moments most people miss—the in-between, blink-and-it’s-gone kind of shit. Through the lens, I chase light and shadow, silence and storm. Photography isn’t just what I do—it’s how I make sense of the world. It’s how I give weight to the fleeting, and voice to the forgotten.
From moody, wide-open landscapes to gritty street corners soaked in real life—I don’t stick to one lane. I shoot with purpose, with precision, and with just enough grit to keep it honest. Whether I’m climbing a ridge to catch the last breath of sunset or pulling over in a rain-soaked parking lot to shoot something nobody else noticed, every frame has a reason.
My work is a mix of technical craft and raw instinct. Cinematic, soulful, and never safe. I shoot film. I shoot digital. I teach, I create, I explore. That’s the fuel.
Based in the South, but I don’t stay still long. I document life the way it feels—unfiltered, imperfect, and undeniably real. So if you’re looking for someone to tell a story through images—or teach you how to shoot yours with truth—let’s get to work.
