Expertise

Her work focuses on capturing a moment in time, whether it's portraiture, lifestyle imagery, or just the perfect light. She loves brand development and is very hands on when it comes to working with art direction and such. 

Always experimenting with new techniques,  she is equally comfortable with analog and digital technologies, and uses both according to the needs of the project.
