Nominated for
Photo of the Year
California, USA

I’m a San Diego based photographer specializing in outdoors lifestyle and studio photography. After becoming an art school dropout, I shot action sports and cycling across the United States, snapping shots of middle schoolers skating megaramps to dodging gravel kicked up from rally cars.

I hung the camera up for three years after my son was born to focus on being a dad, but after a while dusted off the gear and began shooting more tactical/firearms.

Photos I shot in my living room but my dad calls me up asking “how did you shoot that guy in that place?” are my favorite. I love using every tool and unfair advantage at my disposal to create images that push the envelope while still being authentic and convincing.
