From a very young age, I fell in love with photography. I played with cameras on and off over the years. It wasn’t until 2015 that I decided it was time to stop playing with a camera and truly learn how to use it! I wanted to create the images I have always envisioned but did not know how to capture. It has been an exciting journey to finally turn my passion for photography into something I’m proud to display and share with others. I love photographing motion - runners on streets and trails, athletes on obstacle course races, dancers on stage, and people in the streets. Capturing the overall environment so that the image tells a much bigger story has been the key element of my photography style.
I'm based out of New Orleans, Louisiana. I am a registered professional engineer in the State of Louisiana where I design offshore platforms for the Oil & Gas industry. I am also an endurance runner where I've completed 10 marathons plus a 39-mile trail race. I’m also a three-time full Ironman finisher. As a triathlete, I cannot wait to get through the swim and cycling portions of the race in order to get to the sport I love the most, running!
