My love of photography began when I was a preteen riding horses through the mountains and back country. My parents gave me my first camera, and I started photographing nature—trees, skies, reflections—anything that caught my eye. From the beginning, I was drawn to capturing beauty and storytelling through images. That early creative spark shaped my entire path. I’ve always been more of an artist than a technician, but over the years, I’ve refined my craft to combine artistry with precision. I recently earned an Associate of Science in Commercial Photography from the College of Southern Nevada, graduating with academic honors and membership in Phi Theta Kappa. This formal education strengthened my technical foundation and complements the creative instincts I’ve developed through decades of hands-on experience. Today, I specialize in visually striking photography for food and beverage brands—with a particular passion for premium bottle and glass imagery. Whether it’s spirits, craft beverages, or plated cuisine, I bring a detail-oriented approach and a creative eye to every shoot. I also embrace new technology that enhances creativity and efficiency. My goal is to create not just product shots—but compelling brand stories.
