I am a documentary-focused photographer. It has always been the most natural way I have captured the world I see.
Documentary photography asks us to slow down.
It's less about creating moments and more about recognizing them. The glance between two people. The quiet routine repeated every morning. The celebration that feels ordinary until years later.
My work is rooted in curiosity and connection. Whether documenting families, communities, artists, or everyday life, I'm drawn to stories that reveal something honest about what it means to be human.
Rather than directing every frame, I prefer to observe, anticipate, and create space for genuine moments to unfold naturally.
Themes I often explore through my work:
Family Stories
A collection celebrating the beautifully ordinary moments that become extraordinary over time.
Community Stories
Local events, neighborhoods, creatives, and the people who make Austin feel like home.
Portrait Essays
Images that explore identity, personality, and presence beyond a traditional portrait.
Everyday Life
The small, often unnoticed moments that quietly shape our lives.
Photo Projects In Development
Hair Rituals
A documentary photo project that explores how different families navigate their hair care rituals.
If you'd like to be involved in the project, please contact me here.
Why I Love Documentary Style
Documentary photography reminds me that every life is worthy of attention.
We don't have to travel to extraordinary places or wait for milestone moments to find meaningful stories. They're already here; in our homes, our neighborhoods, our routines, and our relationships.
My hope is that these photographs encourage us to look a little longer, notice a little more, and remember the beauty that's already present in everyday life.
