Growing up, I watched my dad carry his camera everywhere, capturing vacation moments, sporting events, and family milestones.

One of my favorite activities as a child was developing film at the mall. We’d drop off our rolls, grab a cinnamon pretzel from Auntie Anne’s, and browse the shops. When the photos were ready, we'd sort through them at the dining table and place them in albums.

In college, I received my first Canon camera and quickly developed a passion for photography. After moving to Massachusetts for grad school, I began exploring New England with my camera which brought me so much joy. Hiking in the White Mountains, camping in Vermont, and beach trips to Cape Cod became opportunities to capture the natural beauty around me. This sparked my love for landscape photography.

As I advanced in my craft, I sought to refine my skills by taking night classes at the New England School of Photography and Boston Photography Workshops. Applying what I learned—whether it was helping friends with engagement photos or documenting my travels—was incredibly fulfilling.

Photography has allowed me to capture life’s most meaningful moments, and I look forward to continuing to create images that tell stories and preserve memories for years to come.
