Photographer & Visual Director

  • My mission is to bring intention back into visual storytelling, creating beauty and fashion images that are both striking and deeply meaningful.

    With over a decade of experience behind the lens, I specialize in beauty and fashion photography rooted in strong visual direction.

    While photography remains my foundation, my background in makeup artistry and fashion styling allows me to approach each project holistically using every element of the image to communicate a unified vision.

    I’m recognized for my uplifting presence on set, technical excellence, and my deep commitment to delivering high-quality work with purpose.

  • I’ve supported the Profoto Light Shaping Company at major events across Toronto, Canada, for over a decade, developing advanced lighting expertise and building trusted industry relationships.

    1. I began my professional journey in 2016 at Humber College’s Creative Photography Program. Despite the loss of my father in 2017, I returned and persevered, graduating in 2020.

    2. In October 2024, I received a scholarship to CMU College, where I trained in beauty, fashion, TV, film, and theatre makeup, as well as hairstyling. I graduated in 2025 with a strong foundation in makeup for all media.

    3. In August 2025, I recently joined The Toronto Fashion Academy to deepen my understanding of fashion styling and its role in visual storytelling. As a photographer and image maker, this final step allows me to refine how wardrobe, texture, and silhouette contribute to cohesive image-making and creative direction.

  • Throughout my career, I’ve had the honour of working with top industry professionals such as Lindsay Adler and Miguel Jacob (America’s Next Top Model), gaining a global perspective and insight into high-level productions.
