I've known Terri for over 11 years now. We had both moved to Las Vegas within a few months of each other, and became friends fast. Both hailing from the marine sciences field, we quickly bonded over a love of the ocean and traveling. Our friendship grew and we've gathered quite the bevy of stories […]

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.

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.
