My favorite hobby

Ever since I can remember I have loved pictures. I assumed I would go into advertising one day because I loved to rip them out of magazines and make collages. It took me a while to realize that it was the imagery I was most drawn to and wanted to create. I got my first camera in high school and have had one in my hand ever since (with a coffee the size of my head in my other hand). After years in a darkroom, I got my BA in photography in 2008 and was immediately off the ground running my own business. I have done pretty much every type of photography under the sun at some point in my career since then. Conceptual photography always had my heart right from the start though and I have found my new happy place in creating creative, stand-out imagery for brands. I get to marry my love for branding, concept, marketing, design and creativity all in one.
