Self Portrait 2023
BEHIND THE LENS
I started my career in commercial photography back in 2008 with a coveted role at QVC, the home-shopping TV giant. Since then, I’ve been lucky enough to work with top-tier companies like Lord & Taylor, Amazon, and Christie's NY, where I had the unique opportunity to manage the Andy Warhol Estate.
My work has been featured in some amazing publications and media outlets, including The New York Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, WWE, VH1, and idobi Radio. Over the past year, I've had the privilege of photographing some incredible recording artists like Snoop Dogg, Pitbull, Fall Out Boy, Morrissey, and Lana Del Rey, creating images that truly capture their essence. I’ve also had the chance to photograph prominent political figures, including President Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Ron Paul, showcasing my versatility and ability to capture the gravitas of influential personalities.
Specializing in corporate photography, I excel at crafting visual stories that enhance brand identities. My deep understanding of content marketing and social media marketing allows me to create engaging images that boost brand presence online. My strategic approach to content strategy and project management ensures every project is executed with creativity and precision.
I pride myself on blending product photography with custom visuals to create cohesive and impactful marketing campaigns. With over 18 years of experience, I stay ahead of industry trends, consistently bringing innovative ideas and delivering my unique vision to new audiences.
