Visual Storyteller Inspired by Grit, Movement, and the Natural World

About Me

 

I’m a Fort Collins–based adventure and lifestyle photographer with a deep love for wild places, real people, and the in-between moments that tell honest stories. My work spans the dunes of Colorado, the whitewashed villages of Portugal, and the rivers of Spain, documenting everything from expedition kayaking to quiet coastal mornings. I focus on expedition storytelling, adventure company branding, and environmental portraits that feel grounded, lived-in, and true to the experience.


I’m not drawn to studio shoots or stiff poses. Instead, my work centers on human connection, movement, and the natural flow of life outdoors. I aim to create imagery that feels immersive and authentic—whether that’s in remote landscapes or alongside teams building something meaningful in the field.


When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me training at my local climbing gym, tinkering with drones, or plotting the next surf trip.
