The Requisite ‘About Me’ Section:

I’m a second-generation native Miamian, and I grew up raising cows and horses on 5 acres way out west in Sunshine Ranches. I sold real estate for 14 years and near the end I was mentally bored. At 32 I decided to quit real estate and walked into Tiffany Photographic and applied for an assistant’s job without even owning a camera! I started with nothing more than my passion to learn and now 34 years later, I’ve traveled the entire world shooting events, weddings, and headshots. Photography has given me the superpower to walk into any room, no matter the location or audience, and create indelible images. I feel that aside from mastery of the tools, being present in the moment and connecting with people are my best attributes and the reason for my success.

During the COVID Pandemic, I took a cue from two of my fellow photographers from Louisiana and Massachusetts to engage with families from outside on their front porch while I remained safely set up my camera and lights on the sidewalk. I wanted to give the families a reason to get dressed up and step outside during one of the most stressful life events ever. I called this The Front Porch Project. The portrait photography project covered such a wide range of the community, the Galleria Fort Lauderdale sponsored my first-ever, one-person art show when the mall reopened to the public.
