My photography journey has been all over the place since the beginning. It all started my junior year of high school, when I decided to take an introductory photography class. It didn’t take long for me to realize that I loved photography. There was something very special to me about being able to freeze a moment in time. I started to take this newfound passion outside of the classroom. Me and my friends would travel around New Jersey to find all sorts of abandoned and strange places for me to photograph. I always found joy in photographing the beauty in places that have been overlooked. After a few months of that, I decided that I want to get into sports photography. I love taking pictures, and I love sports, so it felt like a no brainer. After a few games into the season, something felt off. I wanted more control over the images I was taking. I wanted to build an environment in my photographs. So, I found my footing in fashion. Being able to style my models, choose the location where I would be shooting, and control the entire process all felt so right to me. Fashion photography has given me a new appreciation for life as a whole. Fashion photography makes me feel like an artist, rather than just someone who can take a picture.
