Hello! Welcome to my webpage. I live and work just north of Pittsburgh, PA in Mars Borough. My Passion is capturing each individual’s unique story. Seeing the joy that a quality image brings to that individual and their loved ones is what makes my job the best job in the world. I want everyone that I work with to have an exceptional experience that helps them feel attractive and gives them confidence in their personal appearance.
In 2013, I earned a Bachelor's of Science in Photography from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. During my studies I focused on portraiture, food, commercial goods and illustration. After graduation I turned my full efforts toward family portraiture.
As a photographer, I believe each family represents a unique set of challenges for me. As a rule, I make it a point to collaborate with my clients to formulate an ideal scenario that will best represent who they feel they are. If family means bringing your pets, extended family, favorite car, or whatever prop makes you feel more you, then I encourage you to do it. If there is a special place that you want to make that perfect memory, then that’s where I want to shoot your images. If there is a certain pose that you have envisioned, then I want to try it and several more. The key to a successful shoot is communicating with my clients and hearing and understanding what it is they are looking for in their photographs.
Family portraiture includes photos of individuals at pivotal points in their lives, like senior portraiture, engagements, new babies, silver and gold anniversaries, and maternity. All of these occasions deserve extra special attention to document these precious moments, and I strive to help each family celebrate their most important milestones with images and books that tell a beautifully illustrated story.
Whatever the occasion, it is my personal goal to provide a memorable photographic journey that results in a set of high quality images that will meet and exceed your expectations.
