I am a photographer, cinematographer, philosopher, and educator. But above all else, I am human.

A photographer sees life in stillness.
A cinematographer sees it in motion.
A philosopher sees it in questions and meaning.
An educator sees it in growth.

But I see it as itself — the human experience, unfiltered and unperformed.

My compositions hold both detail and atmosphere: the curve of a shoulder, the quiet tension in a hand, the pause between laughter and breath. I am drawn to black and white for its honesty — for the way it strips distraction and reveals structure. And I am equally moved by color, by the way light falls across skin and fabric and tells its own story.

I could tell you that a 50mm lens most closely mirrors the human eye. But accuracy has never been my aim. I am not here to replicate sight — I am here to reflect presence.

Technical approaches yield technical results. My sessions are not about posing you into someone else’s idea of beauty. They are about witnessing you as you are. You are not a subject to be adjusted. You are not a body to be corrected. You are a living composition — complex, worthy, already complete.

I create space for queer bodies, queer love, and queer becoming. For softness. For strength. For ambiguity. For joy. For grief. For the parts of you that have not always been allowed to be seen.

I do this because I am endlessly curious about people. Because I believe presence is art. Because community matters. Because being seen — truly seen — can be transformative. And because the human experience deserves to be held with care.
