What do you love about your job?

Cars have always held a special place in my heart. There's something about their design, power, and the way they can capture the essence of engineering and artistry that fascinates me. My passion for cars naturally led me to the world of photography, where I've discovered the joy of capturing the sleek lines, vibrant colours, and powerful presence of these mechanical marvels. I find immense satisfaction in composing shots that showcase the unique personalities of different vehicles against the backdrop of stunning landscapes, like the golden autumn vistas of Colorado or the dense rainy forests of Oregon. The changing seasons offer endless opportunities to merge my love for cars and photography, creating images that are not only visually striking but also deeply evocative. The one thing I could have never imagined was the sense of community that photography would bring into my life. From local meet-ups to online forums, I connected with like-minded individuals who shared a similar passion. These interactions not only provided valuable insights but also enriched my photographic journey with diverse perspectives and experiences.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

In every photography session, I strive to elevate the experience by forging a personal connection between the car and its owner. Beyond capturing sleek lines and dynamic features, my approach centers on unraveling the unique narrative that ties the vehicle to its passionate owner. Through thoughtful conversations and a keen understanding of their journey with the car, I seek to encapsulate the essence of their connection. This personal touch not only adds a layer of authenticity to the photographs but also transforms each shoot into a celebration of the owner's journey, memories, and the individuality that makes their bond with the vehicle special. By intertwining the owner's story with the visual allure of the automobile, I aim to create images that not only showcase the technical brilliance of the machine but also evoke the emotional resonance that defines the personal relationship between a car and its proud custodian.

A fun fact about this photographer

I'm hustling through college to become an engineer by day, soaking up all those equations and gizmos. But here's the deal – by night (or whenever there's track time), I'm strapping into a racecar, embracing the exhilaration of speed. It's this intriguing balance between textbooks and tire traction, where I get to play the roles of both the engineer and the speed enthusiast.
