Through the course of my career as a professional photographer, I've spent years traveling the world teaching underwater photography, hosting retreats and sharing my love of all things aquatic. I started my professional career in 2004 on land then in 2014 I jumped into my underwater journey, and I feel they unite to render mesmerizing images!
My overwhelming passion for the underwater world is seamlessly combined with my eye for all forms of beauty to shoot stunning photos, whether it be above or below the surface. I have strived to become a master of boudoir and incorporate this talent into my underwater work, perfectly capturing the flowing female form to truly showcase the beauty and elegance lying therein. My heart and soul are truly expressed through the lens of my camera.
