About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a photographer who moved to LA from NYC about a little over a year ago. I was born and raised in Montevallo, Alabama. It's a really small town in the heart of the state. I grew up in the country so I love nature but I'm also becoming fond of city life.

I'm currently working as photo editor for Time Out Los Angeles and also shoot freelance. My work gets me all over the city shooting amazing restaurants and bars and also covering unique events and rad concerts. It's a pretty sweet gig now that I think about it. I've had a really wonderful chance to explore and learn the city really well, so don't hesitate to message me with any questions or requests.

PHILOSOPHY

There are so many different people in the world, so many different lifestyles and customs; I think we all have a tremendous amount to learn from each other.
