I took my first photo when I was 6 years old, in the backyard of my childhood home, while playing soft toss baseball with my family. I wasn’t very good and had a habit of taking blurry pictures of people’s feet because I was too little to hold the camera level long enough to take a good photo. Throughout my younger years, my family traveled a lot. We went on cross-country road trips, making several “educational” stops along the way to see the wonders of God’s creation. I loved these trips. My favorite part was always looking back at the fun, candid family photos we took. I wouldn’t always remember the timeline or the exact moment, but I would hold on to the memory that went with the photo.
The passion behind that feeling is exactly what led me into photography and videography as a career. Today, I create intentional, story-driven visuals for small businesses, real estate professionals, and individuals who want their work, their spaces, and their lives documented with honesty and care. Whether I’m capturing a brand in action, a family-owned legacy, or the people who matter most, my goal is always the same — to preserve meaning, not just media.
