Specialty: Lifestyle

Chapter: Chicago /
Pro Type: Photographer

I grew up surrounded by people best described as “salt of the earth.” As a kid in that kind of environment, you learn pretty quickly to be creative and resourceful. Simply put, I will do whatever it takes to get the shot, because I do not know another way. Authenticity is part of who I am at the core.

There's nothing I enjoy more than watching my son as he grows, through innocent eyes, interacting with his world with genuine curiosity and wit. It is a continuous inspiration for me to find a unique perspective and know that there is always another way. Curiosity drives my life.

I started my career as a photojournalist and then as an agency Art Director. After five years, I followed my passion to be a Photographer and Director. I consider myself a story-teller and use my experience to create honest stories documenting real moments and true emotions. I love shooting in water up to my neck, swimming with sharks, and laying in the mud; but I also clean up pretty nice when I'm shooting in homes and offices! I'm up for anything with an amazing team of people working by my side. There is no better way to live!

I have had the pleasure to work with people on amazing assignments all over the world for clients including Leo Burnett, Subaru, Adidas, Belize Tourism, and Wyoming tourism.

Now let's go shoot and play in the mud and have fun creating amazing stories.

I am honored to have been selected by Archive Magazine as one of the 200 Best Ad Photographers worldwide for 2018/2019 and 2020/2021.
