 LESS GEAR TALK MORE REAL TALK

I’ve spent years working on assignments around the world as a photojournalist and commercial photographer, with experience across portrait, street, travel, and documentary work.

I’ve photographed over 100 assignments for The New York Times, along with work for global brands, and have been published in National Geographic, TIME, and The Guardian.

I’ve also taught for Leica Akademie and Canon, judged international competitions, and built long-term documentary projects in the field.

My approach is grounded in storytelling and personal projects, but applies equally to street photography, travel, portraits, and beyond.

Everything I teach comes from real experience, not theory.

Ready when you are.
