In 1986, at the age of 10, I received my first Polaroid camera and captured Princess Diana during Expo '86 in Vancouver on my first and second exposures. She was 23, and I was 10. That moment sparked my lifelong fascination with the human subject. Since then, I have been dedicated to illuminating the most captivating facets of people through my photography.
My photography is rich in atmosphere, mood, and visual storytelling, with a flair for the surreal and the abstract. I thrive on challenges and pushing the boundaries of conventional efforts. With a unique sensibility honed over many years, I strive to create photographs rather than simply take pictures. My goal is to enable viewers to question what they think they know rather than delivering what they expect. Today, I continue this work through portrait and entertainment photography for various entertainment networks and music labels.
As my career has flourished, I have founded four successful and influential art projects: Pallas, Drawn to Develop, Front Lines, and Covet Exhibition.
At my core, I am an inspired wanderer, a collector of people and places, and a capturer of beauty in its ever-changing forms. I am thrilled that my career continues to offer opportunities to create high-caliber work with engrossing subjects across diverse media and platforms.
