My journey into photo production began in Los Angeles, inside rental houses, prep bays, and long days on set where I learned gear, lighting, sound, and the rhythm of real production. Those years built discipline, sharpened my problem-solving, and showed me how professional crews move when the work actually matters.
I learned early that strong images don’t come from luck. They come from systems, intentional lighting, and clean execution. Working across commercial sets and studios taught me how photography and video function in real-world environments, how technical decisions affect final results, and how to adapt quickly when conditions change.
After a decade in Los Angeles, I returned home to Kansas City to focus on photography that supports brands, people, and organizations with clarity and care. Today, my work centers on portraiture, editorial shoots, brand campaigns, and event documentation, with a strong foundation in lighting design and production workflow.
Whether I’m behind the camera, shaping the light, or directing the goal is simple: deliver visuals that work creatively, technically, and commercially.
