I grew up in Boulder, Colorado, spent three years studying photography at Parsons School of Design in Paris, worked as an assistant to a studio photographer in NYC and a Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist in Paris, freelanced and showed my work in galleries in Seattle, provided photographs for Hollywood films, and now live, photograph and play in Whitefish, Montana. I have a BFA from Parsons School of Design, Paris, and a Master of Arts in Teaching from Seattle Pacific University.
I’m a people person. I love meeting, photographing and getting to know all kinds of people, especially those from other cultures. I chase light and seek out beauty wherever I go. I have lots of stories to tell. Tell me your story, and what your photography needs are, and we’ll come up with a mutual creative vision for your project.
