My Portfolio
“ My portfolio showcases the warmth and community spirit of Countryside - from enchanting park sessions at the Countryside Recreation Center to golden-hour family portraits along tree-lined streets, and the genuine moments of our welcoming community gatherings. Each image captures Countryside's unique blend of suburban charm and natural beauty, telling stories of cherished moments against the backdrop of our neighborhood landmarks and peaceful community spaces. ”

Equipment & Style
My signature style combines photojournalistic authenticity with artistic refinement. I specialize in capturing genuine moments while ensuring each image is technically polished and visually striking. Using natural light whenever possible, I create bright, airy photographs that feel timeless and elegant. I enjoy vibrant, real color and dynamic images.
Equipment I rely on includes:
- Professional-grade Canon mirrorless cameras and lenses for exceptional image quality
- State-of-the-art lighting equipment for any shooting condition (studio & beyond).
- Advanced post-processing software for professional editing.
My approach emphasizes:
- Clean, crisp images with natural color tones.
- Thoughtful composition that draws attention to genuine emotions.
- A mix of posed and candid shots to tell your complete story.
- Attention to detail in both shooting and editing processes.
