bio

As a photographer and director, I’m drawn to the honesty that comes through when people feel present and fully themselves. That’s where the work begins for me, in the moments that turn something ordinary into something vivid, heartfelt, and grounded.

Growing up in the South shaped the way I see the world and gave me an early appreciation for craft, character, and a strong sense of place. Optimism has always shaped the way I work. I’m drawn to the balance between polished visuals and spontaneous moments that feel real.

Early in my career, I shot stills for Ethan Hawke’s Chelsea Walls, which led to my first commercial assignment with Condé Nast and an ongoing role as a longstanding contributor to Condé Nast Traveller US and UK. Since then, my work has moved across campaigns, lifestyle and fashion, hospitality, and travel.

For me, storytelling is always about people. I want my sets to feel collaborative, welcoming, and full of ease, where talent, clients, and crew can all do their best work. I’m lucky to work with an experienced team that brings a range of voices and perspectives to the process, which only makes the work stronger.

I love what I do and feel grateful that it continues to take me between New York, Charleston, and wherever the work leads.
