I’m a photographer and artist from Durham, NC. I graduated from The Savannah College of Art & Design in 2015 with a BFA in photography. My career began in photojournalism at The Triangle Business Journal, shaping my eye for environmental portraiture in corporate and creative settings. I now specialize in commercial corporate photography for companies like Charter Communications and have been featured in other publications such as Walter Magazine, Curbed, and The Wall Street Journal.

My early work in real estate photography ignited a fascination with architecture. I enjoy photographing hotels such as The Longleaf in Raleigh, NC, and Rhode’s Motor Lodge in Boone, NC. Additionally, I find fulfillment in photographing homes for television. I’ve worked for companies like The Discovery Channel and The Magnolia Channel. My connection to architecture runs deep through my grandfather's legacy as an builder/architect. It’s special to feel his continued presence through my work.

Outside of contracted work, I enjoy shooting personal fine art projects . I cherish the slow process of film photography. My work centers around themes of isolation, security, and femininity. These passion projects feed a need for self expression and an incessant calling to document the magic surrounding us.

The word “variety” speaks most to who I am as a person and photographer. I bring many sides of myself to every shoot. My varied experience has made me capable of facing any photographic endeavor with confidence.
