I’m a commercial and editorial photographer based in Fort Myers, the Heart of Southwest Florida.
Specializing in portrait and lifestyle images, my background in photojournalism has helped shape the look and feel of my work.
Originally from Northern Wisconsin, I moved to the South Florida as a teenager and learned to love photography after my parents subscribed to the St. Petersburg Times (now Tampa Bay Times) newspaper. That paper was and still is an incredible publication that churns out amazing work on a daily basis and helped shape who I am today.
I worked my way through high school in the One Hour Photo Lab of a neighborhood Eckerd Drug Store, an experience that exposed me to the technical aspects of photography, and offered an opportunity to learn from the successes and mistakes of tourists and amateur photographers who would come in on a daily basis.
I went on to graduate from the University of Florida with a degree in Journalism, which offered editorial photography opportunities. I was soon working as a correspondent for wires like AP and Getty, and newspapers like USA Today and the New York Times.
In recent years I have transitioned to more commercial and corporate work, often lending the same journalistic style of photography to clients, creating a modern and realistic look for their brands.
I call Southwest Florida home, an area that includes Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Fort Myers, Estero, Bonita Springs, Naples and Marco Island. Sarasota, Bradenton and Tampa / St. Petersburg are a short easy cruise up I-75 from here. We are also a quick and fun road trip across the state to East Coast cities like West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Miami. I also regularly get to Orlando which is a beautiful drive up through the orange groves in the middle of the state.
