About
Me

I'm a Queer & Nonbinary Philadelphia based Photographer, videographer, and audio engineer.

​

My photography portfolio predominantly consists of editorial and commercial photography. I became interested in photography in 2015. Since then I've been building a portfolio, learning about how to frame pictures, how to correctly light photos, and other photography basics. I learned theory in college, and although my degree wasn't specifically based around photography, learning about how cameras work, color theory, lighting basics, ect. were all part of my curriculum. 

​

In college I did a lot of live camera work, predominantly capturing live band performances. This sparked my interest in filming music videos. 

​

Hands on live event production is what my degree was predominately based around. Focusing on lighting design both conventional and LED, audio recording both in a live production and in a studio, working with video in post production and practicing live camera work, being a director, shader, and switcher. 

​

During my time in college I worked for a local large scale production company, and did some freelance AV work at random locations throughout Florida. I also worked in an Orlando based night club running audio and lighting. I practiced a lot of video editing here, becoming the editor for the Film Departments monthly graduates video 'Gradfest.' I spent my time in college trying as hard as possible to take advantage of all the opportunities that I could. I wanted to gain as much real world experience in the event industry as possible so that when I graduated I wasn't lost or an unemployable candidate with no experience.  

​

After graduating from Full Sail University in 2017 I was immediately hired by Celebrity Cruise Line. I worked as a general AV Tech in the lounges while shadowing our head of Audio in the Theater. Here is where I realized my love for lighting design, spending my second contract shadowing both the head Lighting Designer and the head of Flying for theater productions.

 

After two contracts with Celebrity CL I moved to South Philly where I worked as a Freelance AV Tech and a Video Technician for local event companies. During this time I began offering recording studio sessions out of my home, along with photography sessions. I began building up a solid returning clientele until the pandemic hit in March 2020. I closed down all operations and attempted to rebuild the brand I had, starting at the end of 2021. Unfortunately operating a recording studio in a pandemic is just not the business to be in. I closed down my studio, sold most of my audio equipment, and kept the photography side going. And ᕦ( ✿ ⊙ ͜ʖ ⊙ ✿ )━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ that brings us to today??

​

Expressing myself through art forms like photography, videography, painting, making clothes, I could list a million more things because having ADHD means your house looks like a 5th grade art teachers classroom. This is not just work for me, I live to do these things. I live for expressing myself in fun, creative, imaginative ways.
