The "Let's Change This to That" campaign focused on how to prevent storm water pollutants from entering our waterways. The campaign emphasized ways all Californians can make a difference.

More About My Freelance Photography


Capturing photographs takes more than just a camera—it takes a passion for storytelling, an eye for composition, and a commitment to bringing high quality images to life.


Not everyone loves being in front of the camera, but I strive to create a relaxed environment that helps everyone feel at ease.


 That’s what I bring to every project.


I create images that reflect what matters to you. My approach is collaborative—every shoot is tailored to highlight your goals, include your feedback and deliver to your needs.


I can provide daily or hourly rates for your shoot.

For larger projects spanning multiple days or locations I can offer a retainer or quote the entire scope of work.


Whether it’s for personal memories or professional use, I’m here to provide my professional photography services to help you.
