Painter//Photographer//Talent

I am an artist, in all that I do. 

Maybe that sounds pretentious but I have lived my life as an artist since graduating college in 2010.  I have studied and practiced art making since I could hold a paint brush. I'm not kidding, my first landscape with background middle ground, and foreground I painted at 4 years old. My dad was a commercial photographer... so I grew up a photo assistant, and sometimes a model. I did a work study program at The Victoria & Albert Museum, in Sculpture, and Fine Metals departments. At The Evergreen State College I studied Fine Art and Sociology. I have spent the last 10 years working as talent, often in charge of wardrobe styling, hair/makeup, and location scouting.  

I intertwined working as a model with becoming a photographer by photographing my model friends and brands I have worked with over the years.  I pride myself on being adaptable and because of that have had the opportunity to work on editorial and commercial sets photographing everything from fashion to products.  I am always a team player looking to create the best content as efficiently and creatively as possible for whatever product or person I am shooting.
