It’s that time of year again when we feel the urge to make a New Year’s resolution. Whether it’s for personal or business growth, we should take time to think about how we decide on these goals.

I’ve worked on editorial and commercial photoshoots for local, international, small, and large businesses for close to ten years now.

Did you know that in my past life I worked in the film industry? Experience the journey of my return to film sets!

California winemaking is a fiercely competitive market, and while wineries in the Sierra Foothills aren't exactly trying to compete with Napa and Sonoma by any means, they also understand the importance of establishing a distinctive brand identity to thrive in the tourism market. This identity is going to reflect my backyard: the region's unique characteristics, values, and personality, which are infinitely more relaxed than the hustle and bustle of California's larger cities. Crafting a compelling brand identity is essential for fostering consumer trust, loyalty, and recognition. I was recently hired as a Sierra Foothills winery photographer to help position the wineries of El Dorado County as a sought-after destination.

As a Reno Tahoe food photographer and commercial photographer, I sometimes get lucky and get to combine my passion for photography and my job with my love for food! Recently, I was hired to photograph a number of Lake Tahoe restaurants for The Infatuation, a restaurant review and recommendation site that focuses on discovering the best dining experiences in various cities. To be honest, prior to being hired, I hadn't ever heard of The Infatuation, but I can say with certainty I'm going to be using them as a resource when I travel in the future! I'm excited to share with you some of the work I captured for The Infatuation at some of my favorite Tahoe eateries (and a handful of new ones!) for their article on The 19 Best Restaurants Near Lake Tahoe.

MidTown Reno is a membership-based organization that promotes the cultural diverseness of this artistic district while aiming to keep its neighborhood feel and local vibe. The organization had an idea up its sleeve and wanted to create a short marketing video that highlighted the diversity of the people that live and work in the district itself. Videos have become one of the most powerful and effective ways to connect with potential customers and promote your small business, and while they can provide numerous benefits, including increased brand awareness, engagement, and sales, they can also be very costly. The brains behind the marketing over at MidTown District came up with a solution to their problem - they decided to utilize high-quality still photos as the foundation of their video content. Cue ME.
