Hawaii based photographer living on the Island of Oahu for 15 years. Loving the outdoor photo opportunities here.

Life's moments unfold in front of us; a colorful sunset, the smile of a child, the glow on the face of a mother-to-be, a milestone in someone's life, a success...Those are all memories that I want to photograph with authenticity and connection. I'm especially fond of environmental lifestyle portraiture using natural light and outdoor scenery. The world inspires and energizes me and whether at the beach, taking in a landscape or in the city I see my environment in pictures.

My stock images have appeared online in Architectural Digest, HGTV, AARP, Yahoo, CNN, Sony, Disney, CNBC, AOL, NBC Late Night with Seth Meyers
