Growing up in Montana instilled in me a deep appreciation for the beauty of the natural world and the strength of the vibrant community that surrounds me. These influences continue to inspire my work, where my goal is always to capture life in its most authentic light—true to its essence.

For me, visual storytelling is about more than just holding a camera and pointing it at a subject. It's about connecting on a deeper level, understanding the layers beneath the surface that reveal the real story.

This is where my passion lies—uncovering the truth in its purest form, capturing moments that speak to the heart and resonate beyond the frame.
