Photography has always been where I return; it’s where everything clicks into place & I feel most like myself. I specialize in portraiture, although I’m expanding towards events & creative work as well. I love all types of photography, but the diversity that portraiture brings is unbeatably stunning. 

 I’ve always been drawn to those small moments that people walk right past, that one glimmer of light or the perfect expression on someone's face. I love turning those split-second moments into something you can feel & remember forever. I have never felt more joy than experiencing someone love their picture, a glimpse of themselves captured in a way that they want to be seen. Authenticity is everything to me; the genuine part of someone is the most beautiful & it is my mission to create an environment where you can be that version of yourself. 

Alongside my photography experience, I also model, which is a major factor in my comfort in front of & behind the camera. It’s instinctive for me to guide clients through posing, like subtle facial expressions or even finger placement, as I do for myself as a model. This perspective is extremely important for calming nerves about being the main focus; with it, we can produce expressive & refined images.

At the beginning of 2026, I also expanded into digital collaging, an organic transition based on what I learned from photography & modeling. It took me 5 hours to collect images & create my first collage. When I presented my piece, it moved my class to tears; they decided I should make a series instead of multiple drafts. Brayden Meng, “The Executive Director of ArtIs,” recognized my natural talents, and I was added to the team as “Director of Media.” I’m ecstatic to explore this art form further, too.
