For almost 2 decades, I've be shooting CPG, Portrait and Event work in Boston. I got my start at weddings, where you learn fast how to catch what's real in a room full of people. I think in stories before I think in shots, and every project starts the same way: a conversation about what we're trying to communicate, not just what we're trying to capture.

Photography should be fun, honest, and exciting. Even the shoots that may seem hard or impossible at first. I love those projects. They end up being some of my favorites.

I’m a big believer in authenticity. Sometimes that's one small reaction caught at the right second. Sometimes it's a full content library built for a dozen different uses. Either way, it has to feel true — not staged, not stiff. Even a shoot that's fully lit and set up should still feel like something actually happening, not a performance of it.

I thrive on being in it with the people I'm working with; not handed a brief and left alone. Actually in the room, working through the details together, with people who care about getting it right.

It makes the whole thing worth doing.

Say hi, and Let’s chat.
