Hello! I’m a travel photographer based in North Carolina, USA capturing everything from wide-open scenery to city streets, wildlife, and the occasional bit of portraiture. I see the world as a vibrant, richly saturated place—and I try to reflect that in my photography. While desaturation seems to be in vogue, I often lean into color as a way of conveying how it felt to be present and connected in a given scene.

My daily driver is a Sony A7R IV with a rotating cast of lenses, though you’ll still see the occasional image from my long-past Nikon days sneak into the mix. I also own far too much Peak Design gear—I’m basically a walking catalog at this point.

I process primarily in Lightroom, occasionally Luminar when it fits the mood, and once in a while Photoshop when I need to do some heavy lifting. I always include EXIF data in my posts, and I’m happy to share details about how my photos are made. Questions are welcome—photography’s better when we’re learning from each other.
