I’m not a full-time photographer. But I am someone who always brings a camera.

Sometimes it’s my Leica. Sometimes it’s my phone. Sometimes it’s a 20-pound rig duct-taped to a rolling cart. I shoot because I love it – and because it’s often the fastest way to communicate tone, style, and intent.

Over the years, I’ve captured everything from moody street shots to clean product stills to personality-driven portraits for global teams.  I’ve shot headshots, team banners, product closeups, and “we need it yesterday” campaign assets.

When we need studio-grade work, I know when to call in the pros. But in the in-between moments, the ones too scrappy or time-sensitive for a full shoot, I’ve built a reputation for getting the shot.
