Born and raised in Los Angeles, I have been working in the film and television industry for the past 20 years as an editor, director, producer and cinematographer. I have always had an interest in photography, but I have really been making the transition to photography to where it is now my primary business. I love the challenge and artistry of being able to try and capture a story and a moment in one frame as opposed to being told over 24 frames per second.
