I love what I do. And why wouldn't I!
My work is visual, stimulating, entertaining.
Every day is different. Every shot is a new opportunity to create. There is a revolving door of new people, ideas, challenges.
I don't mind hard work. I'm good with kids (yes, I wrangle too). I am fun, energetic, happy, creative, organized, and driven. I pay attention to detail, make people comfortable, and am open-minded.
With 20 years of design and direction of photography, I have an abundance of fashion, soft goods, food and hard goods experience.
I have been lucky to travel across the country shooting in studios and locations from Santa Barbara to Newport, Rhode Island and Catalina to The Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. Friends and colleagues describe me as having a “really good energy” on set.
I enjoy sharing it with talented, creative people. I thrive under tight deadlines and never stop thinking of solutions until I am satisfied that I have come up with my very best!
During Covid, I was given the opportunity to do some styling work. I enjoyed it so much, I will still take occasional bookings. I have also styled while also directing for Sam’s, which are the dorm room images that lead the gallery. I did not dress the beds, but did style out the entire set of each shot.
