Since my days serving on ships, training grounds, and combat zones, I have had a passion for capturing the moments in the RAW elements of life….

21 years as a NAVY Hospital Corpsman lead me to understand a lot about people and what they hold dear to them: MEMORIES. I left the US Navy as a Senior Chief Petty Officer filled with years of emergency medicine experience, but knew that I had a talent for videography and photography.

With over 4 years of professional photography experience, I fell in love with event photography from the day I attended my first event until now.

Most of my work is for Nonprofit Veteran Organizations or local event services, but that doesn’t take away the opportunity to meet with independent cosplayers, musicians, and other entertainment specialists for an epic session!

My “Hobby Work” keeps me busy outside of my profession photography and videography. This is where I test new lighting techniques and learn new posing examples for cosplay work.
