BIO

I’m a Photographer/Director helping creative teams, producers and artists in the fashion, editorial and music spaces stay rooted in authenticity while creating a visual imprint for the viewer.

Filmmaking was my first professional endeavor; I initially learned shooting and editing on 16mm film—and became a cinematographer/camera op on commercials and short films. I then started a video production company, Two Penguins, garnering clients such as GQ Magazine, J.Crew, Complex Mag, New York Times, Nike, Nordstrom, and more.

Working with the aforementioned clients, I began to develop my photography chops, self-learning lighting, film (120 + 35mm) and digital formats. I utilize both in my work formats depending on client/project needs.
*Side Note—I offer on-set film developing enabling us to shoot, develop, and scan film in nearly real-time, creating a same day mood board. My bio pic was processed and uploaded to this page in under an hour, yep yep.

I previously worked on the other side as a Senior Art Director at Nordstrom for several years, overseeing a variety of campaigns in both stills and video. Additionally I got to work alongside brands such as Thom Browne, Fear of God, Loewe, Off-White™, Union LA, Burberry, Gucci, Saint Laurent, Alyx, Noah NY, Needles, and more. I have firsthand awareness and understanding of client needs and concerns, and how to fulfill and exceed them.

I currently split my time and work as a local between Portland, Los Angeles, and New York.
