Self Portraits

This self-portrait series explores the layered nature of identity through characters that reflect different parts of my personal experience. Each image acts as a time capsule—capturing a moment, a mindset, a version of myself that once existed or still lingers beneath the surface.

These portraits aren’t about likeness. They’re about emotion, memory, and perception. Using varied techniques and mediums, I aim to express how fluid and complex the idea of “self” really is—how it shifts over time, through circumstance, and in response to the world around us.

Light and shadow play a central role in the work, not just to shape features, but to hint at the stories that lie beneath them. This isn’t just a visual record—it’s a process of searching, of questioning, of trying to understand what makes us who we are.

Ultimately, I hope this series invites others to reflect on their own evolving identities—to see themselves not as fixed points, but as a collection of experiences constantly unfolding.

My journey as a visual artist started 15 years ago when my desire to create outgrew my Navy career. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling, I go beyond mere images to create visual narratives that transport viewers into the heart of your establishment. From the soft glow of ambient lighting to the exquisite craftsmanship of every detail, I meticulously capture the essence of what makes your space unique.

I have covered various food campaigns and also hotels and lodges and believe it is not just about showcasing the physical space; it's about evoking emotion and inspiring wanderlust. I believe that great hospitality photography should ignite a desire to explore, indulge, and create lasting memories.

I cover all aspects for hospitality clients, delivering a wide range of images, including interiors and exteriors, menu items and drinks, kitchen action, portraits and ambient dining experience photos. A collaborative approach ensures that your vision shines through in every frame, leaving a lasting impression on your audience.
