I am a photographer based out of the Vilonia, Arkansas area, with a passion for capturing the world in motion. My journey behind the lens is driven by a deep curiosity for the stories unfolding around us—whether that means exploring the diverse natural beauty of Central Arkansas, tracking wildlife across the state and country, or traveling to capture the thunderous adrenaline of an air show. Photography, to me, is about patience and timing. It’s about waiting hours in the quiet stillness of nature for a bald eagle to take flight, and then pivoting to the sidelines to freeze a split-second, game-winning play. Living and working in the heart of Arkansas gives me a front-row seat to incredible landscapes and community stories. I thrive in high-energy environments where precision matters, but I equally cherish the quiet, candid moments that make weddings, events, and portraits so special. When I don't have a camera in my hand, you can usually find me outdoors, exploring new vistas, or seeking out my next great adventure.

Every photograph is a shared perspective. I would love to use mine to tell your story, capture your next local event, or bring a piece of the wild into your home through my prints. Let’s connect and create something unforgettable.
