Portraits of people
in Public Life
Refined, psychologically grounded portraits for authors, artists, doctors, scientists, and actors.
I am an American portrait photographer and artist based in New York City. I strive to photograph from a perspective of fascination and connection.

My approach
I create deliberate portraits that reveal presence, depth, and character. Each session is paced and composed to capture authentic expression. My work emphasizes compositional clarity, tonal cohesion, and enduring impact resulting in portraits that feel both grounded and powerful.

I take portraits that reveal inner life. I’m fascinated by every single person I photograph. Each person is interesting, whether in context of a special place or in a distilled environment.
