Photographs Led by Light and Rooted by Presence

Portrait and lifestyle photographer, based in Connecticut.

Light has always had a strong presence in my work not just as a visual element, but as an energy of its own. I've always approached photography like a mindfulness practice, noticing small moments and letting the composition of images come together naturally, a perspective strengthened by my years of movement practice in yoga and dance. With experience shaping light through my fine art background, I bring the same intimacy and depth into every session. Light may be a character in the story, but YOU are the star.
