My passion for photography started in my early childhood with a red, white, and blue PEPSI-branded Polaroid camera that my grandmother gave me. By age 17, I was spending countless hours in my high school's darkroom as part of my Studio Arts and Journalism studies, a passion that eventually led me to manage several professional photo finishing labs in Charleston, South Carolina.

Today, with more than 20 years of experience in the photography industry, I specialize in creating unique visual content for commercial brands, food and beverage businesses, hospitality clients, and promotional campaigns. I also enjoy capturing a select number of weddings and corporate events each year.

 

My work has been featured in publications such as Matador Network, Garden & Gun, The Local Palate, Distiller Magazine, Weddings Unveiled, and others. I received recognition including First and Second Place awards, as well as Honorable Mention, in the Charleston City Paper Photography Contest, along with Martha Stewart Wedding Wire Awards and Best of The Knot Weddings honors.

 

Beyond photography, I enjoy sharing knowledge through workshops, mentoring, and one-on-one coaching for both photography enthusiasts and working professionals as well as consulting for bar and restaurants to create profitable and unique specialty cocktail menus. In recent years, my focus has been on reviving content for restaurants, bars, hotels, spirits brands, and branded events, helping businesses stay visually connected with their clientele.
