About me

I'm a people photographer - that means portraiture, lifestyle and sometimes fashion and beauty for all kinds of clients, but usually advertising, editorial and television. I love working with people. Everyone's got a story to tell, and for a fraction of a second I get to share a special, intimate moment with a stranger. Whether it's the CEO of a multinational, a supermodel, or the old lady down the street, whoever I'm photographing is the most interesting person in the world to me at that moment.
