parenthood portraits
maternity, infant, and family photography on analog film.
serving all of Los Angeles, San Fernando Valley, Orange County and Surrounding areas.
what’s my process and style?
documentarian
candid, journalistic photography.
using only surrounding light, and simple prompts; my goal is invite an organic environment. to linger, observe and capture, without engaging or imposing.
intimately focused on the little precious moments that seem ordinary.
posed direction
guided, postured portraits.
encouraging an energetic and comfortable atmosphere, while offering miniscule changes in movement that make noticeable differences.
I use your body’s natural positioning to guide you into the most flattering pose.
I work with both analog film and digital photography.
I’m a hybrid photographer, meaning I shoot both digital and analog film. I’ll usually show up to a session with at least 2 cameras, if not more.
Both mediums provide their unique gifts and challenges.
Digital is my sure fire way to make sure I get that special shot.
It’s predictable and controllable. I can check it in real time and waste as many shots as I want to get the one.
Whenever I’m working with kids, I often have to rapid fire.
Analog forces me to slow down.
Every shot matters, so I have to wait patiently for the right moment to snap. And the results are incomparable.
I often say, film is simply what memories look like.
