Photography.
The camera isn’t the point. The point is that I’ve been making pictures—seriously, with intention—for most of my professional life.
The current work focuses on male portraiture, dark florals, and chiaroscuro light studies. I’m drawn to subjects that reward stillness: the quality of shadow, the weight of a surface, the way restraint becomes its own form of expression.
The same eye that frames a portrait is the one that decides where to place a call-to-action, how much whitespace a heading needs, and why one typeface reads as authoritative and another as anxious. Design is photography practiced at a different scale.
I use whatever camera suits the moment—Leica, FUJI X100VI, or iPhone 17 Pro—depending on the light, the subject, and the kind of image I’m after.

Photography is one of the ways I practice seeing; the same eye shows up in my product work.
