Photographer. Speaker. Writer. Mentor.
Over 20+ years, I’ve photographed thousands of sessions for a clientele including Oscar and Emmy award winning actors, up-and-comers, musicians, models, and luminaries from business, technology and media.
Most photographers ask you to pose. My job is to get you to stop posing.
My work has been featured in People Magazine, US Weekly, Angeleno, Beverly Hills Magazine, Closer, LA Stage, Vigour, Moevir, and on my mother’s refrigerator.
My work as a writer and poet informs my philosophy that each image must tell a story. My desire is empower my subjects to know that “beauty is not in the face, beauty is a light in the heart.” And that each of us has a compelling human story to share.
When not shooting I'm a motivational madman doing photographer and creative entrepreneur coaching, 1-on-1 mentoring, artist empowerment and public speaking, which I love and which gives me purpose.
