From the Field (and the Kitchen, and the Sky)

Introduction:

I shoot a lot of things — homes, burritos, humans in love, buildings mid-demo, and places no one thinks to stop for. Sometimes it’s for a brand. Sometimes it’s for me. This blog is where I dump the good stuff that doesn’t always make it to Instagram. If you like weird lighting, stories with texture, or images that weren’t made in a studio with perfect control — you’ll probably like it here.

Top 3 Reasons I Don’t Niche Down — and Why It Makes Me a Better Photographer

  1. Every niche teaches me something different.
    Shooting food made me pay attention to light. Shooting real estate made me fast. Shooting people made me patient. All of it sharpens my eye in ways a single specialty never could.
  2. I don’t want to burn out.
    If all I ever did was one kind of shoot, I’d start phoning it in. Bouncing between kitchens, rooftops, portraits, and product tables keeps my brain in it and the work honest.
  3. Clients don’t live in silos — so neither should I.
    Small business owners need headshots and product photos. Restaurants need food shots and brand storytelling. Real people live messy, multi-layered lives — and my job is to show that.

This blog is where all those perspectives land. The in-between work. The stuff that doesn’t always make it to Instagram. If you like storytelling that cuts across categories, welcome in.
