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. 

{self portrait friday} 17

Today’s self portrait is a little different because it’s less about me and more about 1/2 of my DNA.

I’m going to start by saying my mother is going to kill me for posting these. But I think my future suffering will be worth it : )

My mother is without a doubt the most incredible force in my life.

She is a daredevil and a caretaker all at the same time.

She has put up with all of my crazy antics and has somehow managed to keep on loving me.

She always knows what to do in any and every situation.

And even though she makes fun of Tyra Banks’ large forehead, I still think Tyra would dub my mother “fierce”. Because she is fierce.

Thank you for everything you’ve done for me these past eighteen years, Mom. I love you to the moon and back.
