A note on the practice
If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it.
Photography is how I slow down, pay attention, and stay connected to the world.

About
At the age of 21, I took a risk and moved to Kenya as a photojournalist to pursue a career as a photographer. Years down the road, I’ve traveled to 65+ countries and have been fortunate enough to make this practice my career.
Unplugged Journeys
Intimate, transformational travel experiences designed for those who want to trade distraction for discovery.
Let’s build your next campaign
I partner with tourism boards, hotels, and luxury travel brands on campaigns, content, and creative direction.
Campaigns typically start at $5,000 per shoot day. Let’s talk scope.
