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.

This self portrait friday is bittersweet.
But let’s start with the bitter part…This week my computer decided to die. Or rather, just stare at me with a grey screen like it didn’t know better. I had to send it away for service and I may or may not have buried my sorrows in a Dutch Freeze...

My self portrait friday today was going to be epic. It required waking up at 3:30 am and it included the wonderful Nathan Worden. However, the files have failed me and while I investigate their rebellion against me, I leave you with this silly GIF that I like the consider my only magic trick.

In case you were wondering…
Yes, I am still doing Self Portrait Friday.
But yes, I haven’t posted in WEEKS.
And since I feel like such a bad McBlogger, starting this Friday I’m dedicating the weekend a Self Portait Friday marathon of sorts. Warning: it shall be epic.
In the meantime, feast your eyes upon all the beautiful people...

Today I watched a lot of Mad Men while post-processing. I may or may not have worn bright red lipstick for the occasion

This image was taken during a recent shoot with one of my 2011 seniors.
Whenever I look at this picture, I can’t help but think — I. LOVE. MY. JOB.
I get to spend a few hours with the coolest people of all time and create beautiful images out of real, honest moments. I am utterly in...

I may be old enough to read and count my toes.
I may be old enough to know its rude to stare in public.
I may be old enough to drive and vote.
But I will never be too old to jump on my bed.

Today I felt like saying:

I also felt like taking a swim in a sundress.

It’s good to do what you feel like sometimes.

Happy Friday.

This is just to say I’ve missed you, Home. And it’s nice to be back.

P.S. this is also to say that I am officially back in Corvallis and would love to shoot your HS senior, family or fierceshoot session. Heck, I’ll shoot just about any kind of shoot you can think of Dates...
