Work With Me

I keep a demanding full-time career that has me traveling much of the year, so the projects I take on are selective — and the calendar fills weeks ahead. If you have a date, reach out early.

My approach with people is candid. I'd rather capture what's actually happening than stage what's supposed to. If that's the kind of imagery you're after, here's how we can work together.

For brands & organizations

Live Editorial Coverage

Most brands have to choose between fast photographs and good ones. I deliver both: color-managed, post-ready JPEGs sent from the venue to your social team while the event is still happening — and a full editorial archive delivered the same week, for the images that have to age well.

01 / Live

Event-Day Coverage

Selected, post-ready images to your social team in near real-time — during the event, not after it.

Conference keynotes · Brand launches · Customer & investor visits · Product reveals
02 / Archive

Editorial Archive

Everything from the live take, color-managed and corrected — a full gallery of 50+ megapixel images within a few days.

Content libraries · Product slick sheets · Recruiting & capability docs

Other ways we can work

Increasingly requested

Film

I shoot real film, and I love it — engagement sessions especially. Two things to know: film goes out for development and comes back to me in one to two weeks before I scan and deliver, so it isn't same-week work. And I'll shoot weddings on film, but only as a second shooter — a lead photographer runs the day while I augment with vintage gear and the grain only film gives you.

What I don't shoot

So we're on the same page: I don't lead weddings, and I don't do boudoir, posed family or beach sessions, or anything that means arranging large groups. Candid is my lane — I'm drawn to what's there, not to building what should be.

Winner of the 2024 Capital Wheel Photo Contest in National Harbor, Maryland. My image ran in the 2025 “Pretty in Pink” campaign and turned up on electronic billboards around the capital — humbling to see your own work that big.
