Who Am I?


I was born and raised in North Carolina, a photographer's dream, with the dramatic contrasts of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the ethereal light of the Outer Banks. From golden-hour landscapes to raw, untouched nature, every frame captures a slice of the state’s wild beauty. My faith in Jesus Christ guides every aspect of my life and work. Through photography, I strive to glorify God by reflecting His beauty and the unique stories He creates.

How I Started


My love for nature and adventure sparked my passion for photography. As a kid, I’d borrow my mom’s camera to capture sunsets and special moments on trips. What started as a hobby grew into a career, first as a second shooter with Couick Photography, and now on my own. I enjoy photographing everything from couples and weddings to landscapes, cars, and more—whatever story needs to be told through my lens.

Hobbies


I’m passionate about staying active and creative. You’ll often find me shooting hoops on the basketball court, sketching with charcoal, or exploring new hiking trails. I love traveling, diving into movies with a critical eye, and chasing spontaneous adventures with friends. Whether it’s discovering hidden gems or just enjoying good company, I’m always up for something fun and unexpected.

Interesting Fact


An interesting fact about me is I've been to the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and England, all in the span of 2 weeks. This trip was also my first time flying on a plane. I studied entrepreneurship and innovation abroad in the United Kingdom as part of Bob Jones University's study abroad program.
