owner’s manual

Being born and raised in small mountain towns in Colorado you might expect my interests to be nature related. Hiking fourteeners every weekend, attending concerts at Red Rocks or impatiently waiting for the snow to fall to shred the mountains. These would be false expectations. Instead I prefer to line the driveway with loud rear wheel drive cars and a single semi-practical mom van to my name. It makes me smirk. I live for the conversations that are brought up on impracticality. It gives me the opportunity to explain how they are an extension of my family and are the soul to our passion. It is an outward expression of what we love. Although I don’t utilize my glorious state like one might assume, it inspires me to embrace the natural beauty all around me in my photos. 

With each photograph I want untold stories to be shared. I have a need to be surrounded by rumbling cars that at times shake your body to its core. My mission is to allow my clients to relive those instances each and every time they see the images. Documenting that feeling is both beautiful and powerful. Welcoming my passion and uniqueness there is no cap on my abilities. I strive to be named with the best in the industry.

A garage filled with cars, buzzing florescent lighting and a hint of gasoline is one of my happy places. Taking pictures in these atmospheres make me feel at home. Reviving cars that may have been cloaked in filth and pausing a moment in time. It makes memories of my childhood shareable with my three beautiful children, while building new memories for us to cherish together. Simultaneously this defines a work ethic I want to instill in our family. Showcasing working hard and doing what makes you happy is the only thing that matters at the end of the day.
