I am a professional music photographer from the Washington DC area, currently living in Los Angeles. I specialize in live music, candid portraits, and events.

My style and work is deeply rooted and influenced by my experience with film before the digital era. Many things in the world today are set-up, over-worked and planned, edited, etc…. I love how raw, real, and tangible a great concert is. Music and photography are universal languages, they connect people. In my photographs I capture the feeling and energy of each band, musician, and show in a unique and beautiful way.

I’ve recently shot for Live Nation, Goldenvoice,  IMP Productions (9:30 Club, Merriweather Post Pavilion, The Lincoln Theatre, The Anthem, U St. Music Hall), Virgin Mobile, Nicki Minaj and Myx Fusions,  IDL Entertainment Group, Republic Records, Red Light Management, Pollstar, The Vinyl District,  DCist, The Baltimore Sun, 24-7 Entertainment, Bob Weir and Ratdog, Stumptown Coffee, Girlschool INC., and Zenimax Media INC.

Available for work around LA, DC and for tours. Thanks for stopping by!
