Born and raised in Columbus Ohio, and to a family of artists, I've always been exposed to the freedom of creative thinking and problem solving. I grew up playing trumpet in an Apostolic church, and then went on to study Music Performance at Otterbein College. Within my music career I've been fortunate to record with all types of bands which include O.A.R. ("King" studio album, released in 2011), and to be able to travel the world performing at prestigious venues which include the Lincoln Center NYC, Florence Italy, London & Wales, and more. 

My work spans across commercial, events, wedding, and lifestyle portraiture. Through these mediums, I explore the dynamic relationship between people using both natural and external light sources. I specialize in Chroma (bold color) studio strobe lighting, as well as capturing subjects relationship between each other. I also document the urban and natural landscape of Columbus using a combination unique perspective and post processing styles such as panorama, high-dynamic range and creative editing.
