I am a contemplative photographer whose work reflects a world that is impermanent and deeply interconnected—a call to dance with beauty while knowing none of it will last. My practice distills an ultimate question: if love exists, what am I afraid of?
My process often begins in meditation. Each image arrives as an act of everyday divination—like reading tea leaves, I feel my way into the work with reverence for each sacred messenger. Through patient observation and emotional resonance, I create photographs that extend an invitation to wonder, nourishing what's vital and alive.
Currently pursuing my MFA in Photography at Maine Media College in Rockport, I am engaged in rigorous investigation of lens-based storytelling and interdisciplinary practice. I teach Mindful Photography at Colby College, guiding students in cultivating intentional awareness and presence through the photographic process.
My work explores the intersection of documentary authenticity and contemplative seeing. Whether photographing weddings, portraits, or editorial assignments, I bring a documentary sensibility and cinematic eye to intimate moments, capturing them with both technical precision and genuine feeling. My work has earned recognition including the Audience Award at the Cannes Short Film Festival, for the documentary film Mother Daughter.
Originally from New York City and now based in southern Maine, my practice reflects a deep connection to place, light, and the subtle stories that emerge when technique serves human connection.
