New Orleans

I am a fine art portrait, editorial and fashion photographer located in southeastern Louisiana, just 20 miles outside of New Orleans.

I bleed photography. My life revolves around capturing and creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind images that evoke emotion while also reflecting my unique point-of-view. I strive to capture each of my client's unique personalities in every image I create. I enjoy photographing elements that contrast each other or don't really belong in the scene. Some of the themes I focus on are Light & Dark, Hard & Soft, Beautiful Disaster, Beautifully Broken, Urbania & Industrial Awakening among many others.

I constantly strive to shoot and present my images in unique ways that spark interest and emotion. If people are moved by my images, then I have done my job well.

I began shooting urban and street photos about 5 years ago while recovering from heart failure. I needed a safe, yet creative way to express myself since my physical ability was limited, and since I live so close to one of the most beautiful cities in this country, New Orleans was a great place to start. I've always enjoyed photography, so I figured I would give it a whirl, and that was the best decision I have ever made. I wake up every day excited and inspired and can't wait to capture new, exciting images to share with the world!
