Photographer & Content Creator
I create product, branding and lifestyle images for small businesses and brands across Long Beach and Los Angeles: clothing brands, salons, hairstylists, wedding planners, doulas and speakers. I handle every part of a shoot: concept, styling, lighting, editing and delivery.
