thank you for being here
I feel most myself with one of my analog cameras on my body. I matured in the hands of my 35mm, it has been a mentor to me in ways only nature has eclipsed: The innate, the intuitive, the divine. I have deep reverence for this craft, which is partially why my sessions are offered at longer durations, as most good things take time, require space for pause. In ways I think photography was always bound to bind me, to be my lifelong romance. Because my admiration for the craft was born of the darkroom, I have remained loyal to the threshold that began it all. My goal as a working photographer is to weave the vision of my clients together with my requirements for making great art, even if it slows the process. Film, the darkroom and tactile prints are at the heart of my offering. Without them it simply wouldn’t be she is water. The fulcrum of my photography will always remain rooted in preserving the history and legacy of analog photography.
What is my approach to working with my clients?
Selling something? Sit back and allow me to weave the myth, the story your brand tells, into each image. I refer to this process as visual storytelling and I know that your unique story is the tipping point of your client saying yes, it is the very thing that your audience covets.
Do you crave images that capture the current state of you and a beloved? your present life at this particular moment in time? When I capture couple’s portraits I imagine them in a physical context, as framed prints in your home or hidden in a secret sexy drawer. I envision them as beloved heirlooms.
