With a BA in studio art, I have spent the last 16+ years immersed in the creative arts industry, honing skills and nurturing relationships. I enjoy the collaborative process and the challenges of developing creative solutions. I have an acute attention to detail and a knack for solving problems. I am a highly curious individual and I am always hungry. Not just literally....
Early on, I found myself on the other side of the camera, from the film days through the digital revolution. I am well versed in the technique and language of image capture. However, during this time, I developed an intense interest in all-things-food outside of work. And as I spent more of my "off set" hours in the kitchen, I found myself drawn to create culinary images in front of the camera. Singularly focused.
I am an autodidact cook which I have found incredibly helpful in the commercial art world. I'm not bound by traditional techniques. This coupled with my photographic background greatly informs my styling approach. I feel so fortunate that my passion for creating beautiful imagery has partnered with my obsession for preparing delicious foods.
