welcome.

When I was ten years old, I liked to run around my Los Angeles neighborhood with a disposable camera on a wildlife photography expedition (i.e. taking pictures of cats). While I've strayed away from cat photography and disposable cameras, that adventure and excitement has never left. I'm ecstatic to say that my camera and I still go on expeditions of our own -- sometimes in my own backyard and sometimes far away.


Born and raised primarily in Los Angeles with a wonderful stint in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. I am currently pursuing a BFA in photography at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Available for work in Southern California, Oregon and abroad.

No babies consumed alcohol in the making of this photograph.

{personal} los angeles through a couple of windows

Before I lived in Corvallis, I lived in Los Angeles.
Yes, I am that person that finds smog and a concrete river kind of endearing and revels in the overwhelming amount of people and traffic. And sun in December??? And Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles? I’m not sure if anything is better than that.
L.A., it’s been too...

{portraits} a few things you can do with powdered paint

You know how sometimes you post one half of a shoot that involved some fly kicks and lovely ladies…and totally plan on posting the other half? And then a swarm of senior sessions happen and suddenly the McBlog is flooded by the Class of 2011? And then after the swarm dies down…you forget to post...

{engagement} kevin + laura

Laura + Kevin win the award for Best Cuddlers. They’re also really great at pretending like they’re not freezing on a cold November evening and looking adorable while doing it. Props.

{family} the anderson siblings

Once upon a time two really cool people did a really cool thing and managed to get an old piano to a grassy hill (with the manual labor help of friends, of course).

These two really cool people happened to be brother & sister.
