I love my family. I love my friends. I love the life that has been given to me by God.
I feel crazy blessed by every experience I am able to be part of.

I’m a pretty big fan of laughing and enjoying life’s simple things.
You probably will always find me with a smile on my face.
I love real music, food that has bbq sauce on it, traditional tattoos, exploring and a good cup of tea.
One day I will go to Iceland.
If im not shooting or sleeping, most likely im eating, food is fun.
I wouldn’t mind if Disneyland was my second home.

Music is a very big part of who I am and it’s pretty much why I got started in photography. I used to be frightened of shooting people (true story) now I do it for a living. Doing things that scare you will often change your life, dont be afraid of that.

I have shot everything from punk concerts in dingy venues to models on Los Angeles rooftops. Now I shoot weddings, because theres something about the connection im able to make with the amazing people I get to work with. Ever since I was a kid I loved to be the one to tell stories and recount something that I experienced…I guess thats why I love it so much now that I get to do it with photographs. I want to make you as stoked about photos as I am.

I still shoot families, babies, bands, concerts and portraits on the side whenever I am able. Oh yeah and I guess I should say that I have a degree in Photo-Communications from California State University Fullerton. But I’m a firm believer that passing a bunch of classes didn’t turn me into an artist.
