I am an American photographer living and working in Seoul, and cut my teeth on street photography and documentary from back in 2002, before that in the Bay Area from the 1990's, working in documentary, mainly.

From 2006, I started shooting street fashion, and from there, transitioned into fashion photography. I published the first and only book on Korean street fashion and lifestyle, "The Seoul Fashion Report," and founded Korea's first street fashion blog, Feetmanseoul.com. Presently, I am the only major working non-Korean fashion photographer based in Korea, covering all the major shows, including Seoul Fashion Week, University Fashion Week, and the major design competitions.

Presently, I have founded Korea's first independent online fashion magazine (actually, Korea's first indie online magazine period!), called Yahae! I am always looking for new models for both my personal projects and commercial work.
