There’s something I enjoy about walking into a space and not controlling anything.

No lighting setup, no resets, no second chances. Just working with what’s already happening and finding the shot inside it.

The kitchen was moving fast, the light wasn’t perfect, and none of this was styled for the camera. That’s what made it interesting.

10 years of Telefèric Barcelona — and a night that felt just as much about energy behind the scenes as what made it to the table.

There’s a rhythm to days like this...ceremony, laughter, quiet moments in between. I love those small looks that say everything without needing to say much at all. That’s usually what stays with me the most...not just how it looked, but how it felt to be there while it was all unfolding. Congratulations to and

More from this day soon!

I’m always drawn to the mix of energy and stillness in these moments...one second everything is loud and full of movement, and the next it’s quiet and focused. The textures, the light, the pace of it all… there’s a lot happening, but it never feels rushed.

Neymika and Yash’s engagement party was filled with so much energy, but what stood out most were the quiet moments in between — hearing them talk about what they’re looking forward to as they step into this next chapter together. The celebration, the dancing, the people surrounding them… it all felt like an extension of that excitement for what’s ahead. I love when a film can hold both sides of a moment like this — the joy of the present and the anticipation of everything still to come.

Today I'm reminded of a previous life, and one of the most fun tours from that time. I want to say this was 2015 or 2016...we went all across Ireland over three months that Summer and our driver was also one hell of a photographer. He recently sent me these galleries and I'm reminded all over again how powerful photographs can be. 

I look at these and I feel like I'm in my 20's again. I remember the stories around the frames, of winning the Ballyshannon Folk Festival and almost dying trying to get there. I remember the lock-ins at the Sky and the Ground in Wexford; I remember sinking knee-deep into a bog on the most beautiful day of the whole tour. 

I really enjoyed flipping through these images (hairstyles be damned!), and look forward to when I can share these stories with my sons. 

Take lots of pictures, everyone.

The portraits that feel the most natural are usually built on three things: movement, proximity, and conversation. Movement keeps people from feeling stiff, proximity creates connection, and conversation helps people forget the camera is even there :)

When those elements come together, the photographs begin to feel less like posing and more like moments unfolding.

Save this for your wedding day portraits.

There’s something about the Marin Headlands at golden hour that never gets old. The scale of this place does half the work, but it’s the timing that makes it feel cinematic. When the sun drops just low enough to soften and stretch across the landscape, everything slows down. This is why we plan around light.

just launched their first private label collection, and I’m genuinely honored they trusted me to capture it.

There’s something different about photographing a brand’s debut — the details feel sharper, the stakes feel higher, and the intention behind every piece is unmistakable.

We approached this with a focus on letting the craftsmanship speak for itself. Seeing it come together — and now live — is incredibly special. Grateful to collaborate with brands that care deeply about what they create.

More from this collection soon!

Sometimes people ask if they need the full 2 hours for a session (or 3 hours for newborn sessions!)...we're not shooting the whole time, but instead bake in extra time for dance breaks like these! Sometimes little ones just need a bit of a break to show up as their best selves :)

This little guy needed a little extra time to open up a little, and once he did the show was all about him!
