I was honored to be featured as a Trendsetter to Know in the Leaders category for Arizona Foothills Magazine. I have been an avid reader of this magazine ever since my parents move to Arizona in 2005, so be featured as one to know, was a huge honor and delight.
I do not know who nominated me, however I am very thankful for whomever did. Scrolling through the other features, I have found myself in some pretty fantastic company!
BEHIND THE LENS
I believe in real moments and chasing sunsets. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments.
I believe in creating images that demand to be printed—framed in fine art materials and displayed as the heirlooms they're meant to become. My approach is both editorial and intimate, capturing not just faces but the emotional landscape of your life. Each portrait is thoughtfully composed to reveal your authentic story while honoring the beauty of the world around you. Your journey is extraordinary and entirely your own, and I'm here to preserve it with the artistry it deserves.
