Local photojournalist & cinematographer dignifying through documenting.

Words & images can shift reality. They provoke movement, stir compassion, break stigmas, tell of truth, and generate thankfulness. I am continually awed by my experiences that affirm those capabilities! This captivated me when I was in high school, and I began searching for ways to make communities better through these two mediums. If we can bridge gaps with understanding through art - then let’s!

I’m based in Portland, ME, but have formerly worked in Chicago, IL where I received my Bachelor’s studying theology and photojournalism at Moody Bible Institute. I’ve had the opportunity to work as a News Reporter for a hyperlocal newspaper, The Messenger, Creative Director of an Art & Theology Journal Publication ‘Thin Space’, and an Executive Director of an evangelistic photojournalism ministry called The City’s Gospel.

Above all, I want to dignify people! I allow individuals to speak for themselves as much as they can, create imagery with integrity, and deeply value honesty with each depiction. I feel so passionate about honoring these individuals and their personhood over their circumstances or the content they’re able to provide. I believe that content produced can do good, but I never want to miss the opportunity for good within the documenting process!

I'd love to work with you and whatever vision you have! Click the envelope icon at the bottom of the page and let’s start the conversation.
