I have photographed celebrities and executives, astronauts and rockstars. My work has appeared in numerous newspapers and magazines including The New York Times, Genii, and the San Francisco Gate.

My photograph, “Echoes,” was featured in the show San Diego Keeps Her Promise: Balboa Park at 100 at the San Diego Art Institute in 2015.

I shoot entirely on film using vintage cameras. My 35mm camera of choice is a 1955 Leica M3. For medium format, my main camera is a 1971 Hasselblad 500 CM. For large format, I shoot a 1951 Graflex Pacemaker Speed Graphic 4×5 and a 1923 Eastman 2D 8×10.
