Professional - Affordable - Insured
I’ve been photographing the people and places of the Tampa Bay area since 1997. I believe photography is more than just taking pictures, it’s an art form built on creativity, attention to detail, and the ability to see meaning in everyday moments. Every image is an opportunity to capture something real, something lasting, and something worth remembering.
As a full-time high school teacher, photography is both my passion and creative outlet. I specialize in senior portraits, families, and sports photography, with a focus on authentic, natural moments. I also believe that capturing those moments shouldn’t come at an overwhelming cost; you shouldn’t have to spend a fortune to preserve memories that matter. My goal is to create high-quality, meaningful images that are both accessible and lasting.
Beyond the classroom, you’ll often find me on the sidelines of local high school games, camera in hand, capturing the energy and emotion of student-athletes. I share these images on my website, where families can download them free.
Living in the Tampa Bay area provides endless inspiration. When I’m not shooting portraits or sports, I enjoy photographing nature—especially Florida’s powerful summer lightning storms—as well as candid moments through street photography.
