I Don't Just Watch
The Race. I Run It.
Most photographers wait at the finish line. I prefer the pain cave. As an ultra-runner (50k/50m), I understand the grit required to compete, and I bring that same endurance to my work.
Whether I'm documenting a senior's unique style or an athlete's breaking point, my goal is simple: Create a safe, authentic space where you can be exactly who you are.

Photography is a luxury, but representation is a right. I run a "One-for-One" model: premium commercial bookings subsidize free headshots and portraits for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ community members who need visibility.
