Born amidst the vibrant creativity of Los Angeles, and raised in the picturesque landscapes of Sacramento, I am an artist who has embraced the beauty of the natural world as a constant source of inspiration. My journey has taken me from the bustling urban streets to the serene depths of the forest, shaping my artistic perspective in profound ways.

For eight awe-inspiring years, I found solace and artistic nourishment within the ethereal embrace of Yosemite National Park. Immersed in the grandeur of towering sequoias, cascading waterfalls, and majestic cliffs, I developed an intimate connection with the raw power and sublime beauty of nature.

Following my time in Yosemite, I ventured to the enchanting realm of Humboldt, where I spent three transformative years exploring the mystical redwood forests and rugged coastal landscapes. Here, I deepened my appreciation for the intricate interplay of light and shadow, capturing moments that revealed the hidden secrets of the natural world.

Currently based in Santa Barbara, California, I continue to pursue my passion as a professional photographer, specializing in several distinct genres. My portfolio encompasses the realms of fine art nude photography, portraits that delve into the depths of human emotion, captivating travel photography, and the mesmerizing realm of video. What sets my work apart is my unique eye and a penchant for exploring the darker aspects of the human experience. I have an innate ability to breathe life into unconventional themes, allowing viewers to confront their own vulnerabilities and explore the complex nuances of human existence.

Through my lens, I endeavor to capture the raw and unfiltered beauty that resides within the shadows, illuminating the often-overlooked aspects of our world. Every photograph I take is a testament to the power of storytelling. I strive to evoke a deep sense of emotion, inviting viewers to embark on a visual journey that transcends the boundaries of time and space. Whether it's the vulnerability of the human form, the haunting beauty of decaying urban landscapes, or the enigmatic allure of remote destinations, my work seeks to provoke thought, spark conversation, and inspire a renewed appreciation for the intricacies of life. As an artist, I believe in the transformative power of visual storytelling. Through my lens, I aim to capture the essence of the human experience and create meaningful connections between the subject matter and the viewer. I invite you to join me on this artistic odyssey, as we delve into the depths of light and darkness, exploring the extraordinary beauty that lies within the ordinary.
