Commissioned Portraiture
My approach to portraiture is simple. I use photography to honor what is true, real, and original to the people in front of my camera.
Creating portraits of families, people I love, artists, and musicians has shown me photography’s scope to connect with and understand everyone’s unique story. In addition to commercial work, I am available to create portraits for individuals and families. Whether you need documentation of life’s milestones, family portraits, or corporate headshots— I work to create one-of-a-kind imagery tailored to you (on location or in the studio). Let’s collaborate and create lasting memories for you and those in your life.
This session is all about you.
It is an opportunity to celebrate your unique personality.
Milestone Moments
Senior photos, promotions, reunions, engagements, anniversaries, end-of-life, and sports achievements.
Personal Branding
Small business, side-hustles, hobbies, social media, and unique interests. Together we can capture what makes you you.
Corporate Headshots
For professional use and LinkedIn profile, or a consistent look across your company — let’s create something that helps you stand out.
Families
No family is the same. I love capturing families in their own unique ways. Whether in studio or at a meaningful location, the best way to capture magic is by celebrating your chemistry together.

About Me
My career in photography started over 30 years ago, although I spent most of my career as a creative director in the advertising industry. I am delighted to be doing more photography these days in addition to teaching — both pursuits being very near to my heart.
My work has been published in Leica Magazine, Condé Nast Traveler, Edible Ohio Valley and aCurator. I received Best in Show in the prestigious Communication Arts Photography Annual, the industry’s leading creative arts publication (August 2023).
