I am a fine art and special events photographer based in New York City. I pride myself in understanding the people, culture I am hired to work with.

A photographer for 17 years in nine countries. I have mastered the art of capturing moments with exceptional use of color and true feeling in my portraits that leave a lasting impression on viewers.

My images have been showcased in solo and group exhibitions in New York and Hiroshima,Japan. My portraits are collected worldwide. I have lectured on photography around the world and been published in books and other media.

I was the in-house event photographer for Hermès of Paris, Inc. for four years. My expertise and dedication later earned me a position at the James Beard Foundation photographing over 2,000 top chefs.

I have worked in New York and throughout Asia. I am wildly recognized for my ability to tell a compelling story and skill at capturing the authentic human element while remaining inconspicuous at photo shoots. My photographs record the lives of ordinary people from around the world as well as public relations, corporate and culinary events to give viewers a glimpse into a wide array of societies and cultures.
