About

I’ve been taking photos since I was 8 years old and professionally since I was 20 in my NYC studio and on location. I’ve photographed everything from a copper mine in New Mexico to corporate executives in NYC to diamond jewelry to fancy food and cosmetics environmental portraits and annual reports catalogs and advertising. There’s almost nothing I haven’t photographed in my career and I welcome the challenge and opportunity of telling your story through photography and in capturing your essence in a portrait. When I’m not working I’m dancing (Nia is my favorite dance class) and riding horses (forever a newby) and taking hikes in the beautiful New Mexican high desert around Santa Fe and playing tennis. I love museums reading Pendergast novels listening to all kinds of music and attending dance concerts. I love people! I love when people see me for my talents and passions…and I’ve experienced that most people want to be seen as well. I love the individuality of each of us and believe that we each have a story to tell and an energy and passion that we want to show the world. My joy is to capture that story passion and essence and translate it into a portrait that really captures your individual spirit or the love between your partner friend horse pet or family. Companies also have individuality. In our meeting together I find out what your company’s story and mission are and translate that into visual imagery that tells the story of your brand.
