About

Hello, and thanks for being here! I fell in love with image making after receiving my first camera at 14. Photography was and is a way to document life with all its ups and downs. I gravitated toward journalism and have over two decades of professional experience crafting stories with photographs, video, and graphic design.

My career started printing black-and-white ad campaigns for publication in a New York commercial lab. I followed my heart for storytelling as a photojournalist, reporter, editor, and producer for leading news organizations, including Newsday, the New York Post, the Marietta Daily Journal’s Cherokee Tribune, the Waterbury Republican, AOL Patch, Getty Images, and the Associated Press.

I’ve produced B2B motion graphics videos and print content for The Marlin Company, developing communications for healthcare, industrial, and hospitality industries. Each work experience deepened my commitment to the craft of visual storytelling.

I enjoy working with local nonprofits throughout greater Atlanta, capturing moments that matter. Visit the site, stillfilmmedia.com, to view my nonprofit photography work.

Whether I’m photographing a corporate event, community initiative, or personal milestone, my goal is always the same: to capture the unique essence of each subject and tell their story with authenticity and heart.

My work has been featured in publications such as The Christian Science Monitor, Cherokee Life Magazine, Hartford Magazine, New Haven Magazine, the Cherokee Tribune, and Southington Magazine.

My photography has been in various solo and group exhibits, including the New Britain Museum of American Art, Marietta Cobb Museum of Art, The Art Place Marietta, PhotoPlace Gallery, Sewell Mill Library & Cultural Center, International Center for Photography, Buckhead Library, and more.

Based in Marietta, Georgia, I serve clients across the metro Atlanta area, offering services that blend technical expertise with heartfelt storytelling.

Let's collaborate to bring your vision to life. Contact me to start the conversation!
