BEHIND THE LENS

MY JOURNEY AS A PHOTOGRAPHER

IMGL7991-retouch.jpg

​​Maybe it started with my grandfather, whose love for the craft I was lucky to inherit. But it wasn’t until my mid twenties that I chose to return to the States, enroll in college, earn my degree, and step fully into photography as my life’s work.

​Over the years, I’ve moved away from traditional labels like boudoir or branding photography. Instead, I focus on something deeper, photographing the human form and spirit in a way that is raw, artful, and timeless. Whether my subject is clothed or unclothed, in a studio or on location, every portrait is an exploration of movement, presence, and emotion.

​​​

My approach is minimal and intentional, centering on who you are, not just how you look. At my core, it’s about capturing something real, something personal. ​

"Every portrait is rooted in the stories lived, the beauty witnessed, and the belief that photography is more than an image. You don’t have to fit into a category. You just have to show up as yourself."
