About me...

Photography, for me, has always been about connection. I am drawn to the space where vulnerability meets strength and where people feel seen as they truly are. My work lives at the intersection of intimate portraiture and commercial storytelling, blending softness with structure and emotion with intention.

I studied commercial photography at the Savannah College of Art and Design, where I built a strong foundation in lighting, composition, and collaborative production. That training shaped my approach to creating images that are thoughtful, visually clear, and grounded in story. Over time, my practice evolved to include both fashion and commercial work as well as modern boudoir and intimate portraiture, allowing me to move fluidly between personal and brand driven imagery.

 

My portrait work is rooted in creating a space that feels gentle, affirming, and free from pressure. I approach each session as a love letter to who you are in this moment, even as your body and life continue to change. These sessions are slow, intentional, and guided, creating images that feel soft, honest, and sensual without needing to perform or pretend. This is a queer affirming and body honoring space where all identities are welcome and beauty is not limited to one idea of femininity.

Alongside my portrait work, I collaborate with brands, creatives, and designers to produce fashion and commercial imagery that is modern, refined, and emotionally grounded. I enjoy the balance between concept and spontaneity and believe the strongest work comes from trust, communication, and shared vision. Whether in studio or on location, my goal is to create imagery that feels elevated while still human.

If you are here for an intimate portrait session, a fashion story, or a commercial collaboration, I would love to create something meaningful with you.

At the heart of everything I make is the belief that being photographed can be an act of reclamation. A way to return to yourself. A way to see your body, your presence, and your story with new tenderness and clarity.
