Hi
I am a Photographer and Graphic Designer in Tampa, FL. I have a love for art, colors, and creativity. I believe that photography is about telling people’s stories, with a unique artistic perspective, capturing the thoughts, memories and passion of that person.

Lauren & I recently had the opportunity to photograph several cars at Ferrari of Tampa Bay for their inventory. One of the days that we were there, this beautiful bike came in and they asked if we could shoot it right away. Without hesitation, as I was already eyeing the bike up when it rolled in, we set everything up and these were some of the images we captured. Hope you like this bike as much as I do!
Photos of the cars we shot coming soon!

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing the Campos for quite a few years now. They are an amazing family that is full of love and happiness. Two years ago, Su and John welcomed their son Landon into their world! He is so cute and full of personality! I love photographing the Campos in their own environment in a more candid approach, as it brings out their true emotions. Josh and I captured some great photos of just that on this beautiful day! Hope you enjoy!

Caroline and Greg chose to have a very simple and sweet wedding at Fly in downtown Tampa. They had a small intimate ceremony held on the rooftop where their closest friends and family joined them for their special day. After the ceremony, we took Caroline and Greg to some great spots around the downtown area, where we captured great images of their love for one another! We ended up back at Fly, where more friends and family came together to celebrate with food, drink, love and laughter! What a great day, it was!!
Thank you Caroline and Greg for allowing us to be apart of your special day! It was truly inspiring!!

Jenn and Mike’s baby shower was creative, unique and fun! They gathered friends and family to celebrate at The Dog’s Bollocks, a British pub in Ybor, that is owned by one of their friends. Their decision to rent our photo booth for a baby shower was a first for us, but we loved the creative idea! It was a great way to capture this moment with the people that are closest to them. Hopefully we get to do more of these in the near future!

I met Kelly and Ricky at the Great Bridal Expo here in Tampa last February. They were very excited about their recent engagement and that excitement carried over into what turned out to be a beautiful and extraordinary beachfront engagement shoot.
The shoot took place at The Postcard Inn on St. Pete Beach. The weather was great and the couple lit up the camera!
I love and recommend engagement shoots for all couples because it allows me to get to know the couple and how they interact in front of the camera before their wedding day. It also allows the couple to get comfortable in front of the camera and to get use to my style of shooting. This day was filled with much love and happiness! Congratulations Kelly and Ricky, my best of wishes for you on your upcoming wedding!

When I first met Kassi I knew her wedding was going to be so much fun. She had explained how she loved antiques and how Matt loved to skate board and they were going to try and incorporate both into their wedding day! I love when couples put their personalities into their wedding, it makes it that much more unique. Here are some of my favorites from the day!
Thank you so much to Desilyn McKeage for second shooting with me!

I am in my last term at school and decided to take a fun Studio Lighting class. The class is defiantly more challenging than I thought, but I am so happy I am learning and challenging myself in different ways. Yes, a lot of people may say that shooting products are easier than people, but I disagree. When I am shooting a client, I have someone to talk to, to joke around with and I can see some type of emotion that I can capture from that person. With a product, well, it just sits there! Here are some of the shots I have done so far.

Happy Hump day
