About Me



I am a fashion, commercial, lifestyle photographer living in the Northwest... I have Studios in Portland Oregon, Eugene Oregon and New York. I started in nowhere Oregon making my first studio in Eugene Oregon and now have opened a studio in Portland. Photography for me is the best part of the creative process. Working as a team with all parties involved, from client right down to the talent. Shooting people has always been my passion, I see myself more as a director than a photographer, anybody can TAKE pictures... it just takes a camera, I direct, tell a story, see emotion an image. I see images in every walk of life, its the curse of the photographer, constantly seeing the world through a veiwfinder. Studio Eugene 245 Blair Blvd Eugene Or. Studio Portland 20 NW 5th #306 Portland Or.
