“One of my favorite parts of creating is doing it with a team. Over the past few years I've learned how much better the final product can be when you have a lot of hands working on it & people bouncing ideas off of each other. People are better & stronger together.”

“I love using images to create the unordinary. Using wild colors, emotions, and movement with the subject of the image is really important to me. I've had people call me a conceptual portrait photographer in the past. I think it has a nice ring to it.”
