I was raised in Southern California. Specifically, Los Angeles / Hollywood, a true Angelino. So who wouldn’t be surprised if I wanted to pursue my dream in filmmaking and acting, etc. Well, I got a little sidetracked and got into a lot of different things of interest. For example, piano, dance performance, vocal singing, dental hygiene, retail, Olympian. Yes, sounds ridiculous, but I actually sincerely thought that one of them might be my true calling.

But again to get back on track, I went back into filming and then I started to hone down my skills from filmmaking to cinematography then to photography. In which I thought it would be appropriate since practically my whole life I’ve always enjoyed taking photos, sometimes pretending to be paparazzi.

I try to make it a point to know what your expectations and needs are before we do a shoot so we don’t waste any time capturing the desired image.

What drives me is creating. I want whomever I'm shooting to feel good about the experience as well as the final results. The better you look, the better I look.

I want to take these visuals further. I want to tell more stories. I want more nationalities. I want more extreme looks. Extreme makeup and hair. I want to work with stylists. I want to work with modeling agencies, magazines, studios. I am simply HUNGRY!!!

I truly believe this will someday allow me to pursue my original dream of filmmaking & directing.

So the journey is not over. It has just begun!
