I always wanted to live in New York. Maybe I watched too many movies and TV shows when I was a kid, I'm sure that had a lot to do with it. Dreams don't come true quite exactly as you imagine them, but they do come true. These photographs capture New York as I dreamt it.
Portrait photography grants me the opportunity to forge meaningful connections. It is a collaborative process in which we will create images that embody your essence and strengths, reveal the true depth of your character and present the best version of you to the world.

I decided to explore black and white film or keep the settings of my camera on B&W to help me distill moments into their most elemental forms. Black and white has always transported me to a different version of reality, one that is a bit closer to my subconscious.
Through seemingly mundane urban scenes, street photography reveals the intricate stories woven into the fabric of daily life. Walking trough city streets, seeking out frames that elevate the ordinary into the extraordinary. The works are captured on a range of mediums, including Ilford HP5 Plus, Kodak Tri-X, Kodak T-Max, CineStill 400D, Kodak Portra, Kodak Gold, and the versatile Apple iPhone. Each photograph is a testament to to finding and celebrating the quiet narratives of urban existence.
Rain photography captures movement in a way that feels both dynamic and serene. The blur of people hurrying under umbrellas conveys a sense of motion that contrasts with the stillness of the environment. These reflections often double the visual impact of a scene, softening edges and enhancing textures, making the world appear both familiar and mysterious.

Ensuring every project is executed with precision and creativity. From the initial stages of conceptualization—where ideas are transformed into a structured plan, including scripting and storyboarding—to the hands-on work of filming, I take on multiple roles. Acting as the director, camera operator, lighting technician, and sound engineer, I bring a comprehensive skill set to each project, ensuring every detail is meticulously handled.
