ABOUT ME

I am torn between two genii - one continually proclaims that the females of the species are angels. The other whispers close that they are all nymphomaniacs! And so I am seduced by that Terry Richardson - Helmut Newton fantasy world. But I am also in love with that Munkacsi - Sokolsky aesthetic of light and girls floating through the air. Since 1997 I have been involved in art, fashion, beauty & glamour photography. It is a journey that I am enjoying just as much as I am anticipating the destination (or destinations!).

If you are interested in working with me or collaborating with me, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you!

"What is ruining the perception/expectation of beauty and attractiveness are all these heavily-Photoshopped images that erase all trace of individuality from a person. People are beautiful BECAUSE of their imperfections, NOT in spite of them! A person's individuality and life history is written on their physical being via marks and scars and removing every little physical quirk on a person's skin robs them of that."

RECOGNITION

I have also received the following accolades for my fashion, beauty & art photography:
