I Believe in the Work, and the People Behind It

I don't believe in creating content just for the sake of creating content. I believe in understanding the people behind the work, recognizing what makes them different, and finding ways to help them share that with the world.

Over the years, I've invested a great deal of myself in the projects I've worked on. That means more than showing up with a camera. It means building relationships, earning trust, paying attention to the details, and caring about what we're trying to accomplish together.

Much of my work has been with musicians and artists, from established names to emerging talent trying to find their footing. Not everyone has a record label, a marketing department, or a big budget behind them. Sometimes, what someone needs is a strong set of photographs, a compelling video, a thoughtful interview, or someone who understands what they're trying to build and can help them take the next step.

I bring years of experience, a hands-on approach, and a genuine investment in the people I work with. I'm interested in making work that feels honest, looks good, and serves a purpose. No unnecessary production, no chasing trends for the sake of it, and no treating people as just another piece of content.

Good creative work is about more than the finished product. It's about the people involved, the relationships you build, and what you can accomplish when you genuinely care about the outcome.

Editorial & Magazine Work

As a photographer and writer for Resource Magazine, I covered photography, creative practice, and the people behind the images. My work included a regular column, Trouble Shooter, documenting political protests in New York City during 2011 and 2012.

I also interviewed photographers working across conflict, humanitarian, fashion, and commercial photography, exploring the realities of their work and the responsibilities that come with making images.

Selected interview subjects included:

Zoriah | Humanitarian photographer, on war photography and the impact of digital technology on photojournalism.

Gary Knight | Conflict photographer, on documenting war and war crimes.

Robert Kenney | Fashion and advertising photographer, on mentorship and professional practice, informed by my own experience assisting him early in my career.
