I was born in the suburbs of Los Angeles in 1985 to two loving parents who both worked hard to give me everything I could ever need. Growing up, I was always a bit of an outsider due to my weight and my blonde hair, but as I got older I realized that these things made me different and special.
When I turned twenty-one, I left Los Angeles for New York City where I pursued a career in photography. It wasn't easy, but it allowed me to express myself through the lens of my camera and connect with others on a deeper level. Now at thirty-five, I'm grateful to have built a successful business that allows me to capture real, intimate moments of beauty.
In my free time, I love reading books about psychology, philosophy, and social justice issues. I also enjoy listening to indie folk music and attending underground art exhibitions in the city. When it comes down to it, though, I believe that true beauty lies within - and I'm not just talking about physical appearance.
