About
background
Spent most of my 20s in bands, trying to get my music career off the ground and after the dissolution of my last band in 2010, I decided to pursue photography. Moved to Paris in 2011 and cut my teeth shooting in the streets before transitioning to shooting tests for agencies. Returned to LA in 2013 and continued shooting tests in addition to lifestyle, product, and food for the next several years. During lockdown in 2020 I began shooting and editing video.
I don't make "content," I'm left-handed but play guitar right-handed, and am an unabashed fan of Emily In Paris.
