CHICAGO PHOTOGRAPHER & GRAPHIC DESIGNER
About me.
My work examines the intersections of identity, culture, and self-expression through visual storytelling. I bring a structured yet expressive approach to photography, focusing on how gender and individuality are conveyed through fashion, language, and presence. Each image serves as a reflection of the diverse ways people define and communicate who they are.
Working across studio and environmental settings, I employ bold color palettes and dynamic lighting to emphasize emotion and character, transforming portraits into striking visual narratives. My experience photographing music events has sharpened my ability to capture authenticity and energy, revealing the nuanced ways people present their individuality before the camera.
In addition to photography, my ongoing work in graphic design since 2019—particularly in creating visual identities for music artists—has strengthened my understanding of composition, color, and storytelling, further enriching my creative practice.
