About

Hi Y’all!

I’m a photographer / illustrator based in Austin – by way of Detroit, NYC, LA & SF.

PHOTOGRAPHY

I’ve been professionally photographing people for over a decade.  I’ve done everything from weddings to corporate events to family portraits, from acting headshots to dating profile headshots.

At the core of my photography, I love to engage with people, help you get comfortable in front of the camera to capture the most authentic and flattering version of you. When you tell me that you never knew you could look so good, that’s when I know I’ve done my job.

ILLUSTRATION

I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t drawing or painting.  My love for travel and food are my greatest sources of inspiration.  I mainly work in watercolor and digital, but am always exploring new mediums.

Some notable clients have included Condé Nast Traveler, Atelier Crenn, and charity: water, though I also love working with individuals to create meaningful bespoke pieces of artwork.
