the creative, storyteller, memory-maker, and heart behind Modern Color Photography. I’ve spent the past ten years building my craft and specializing in portrait, branding, maternity, family, and lifestyle photography. But more than anything, I’m passionate about creating images that feel like you and preserving the moments you’ll want to remember long after they’ve passed.

​

I believe it’s important to know the person behind the camera, too. You’re trusting me with some of your most meaningful moments, so I want you to know who I am and what drives the work I do.

​

I live in Columbia, South Carolina, with my wife and our handsome son, who inspire me every day. So much of the way I see photography comes from being a mom myself and knowing just how quickly the little moments become memories.

​

My love for photography started when I was young, but it truly became a passion after my son was born. I wanted to capture every little second, the expressions, the tiny details, the laughter, and the everyday moments that I knew wouldn’t last forever. Along the way, I fell in love with learning everything from light and composition to editing and, most importantly, the art of telling a story through an image. My style is natural, warm, and connection-driven. I’ll guide you when you need direction, but I’ll also give you plenty of space to simply be together. I’m always looking for the in-between moments—the belly laughs, quiet glances, messy hair, big hugs, and little pieces of your family that make your story yours.

​

There’s something incredibly special about being invited into people’s lives and trusted to preserve the moments they never want to forget. I get to turn those fleeting seconds into photographs you can hold onto for years to come—and I don’t take that privilege lightly. Now, I get to wake up and do something I genuinely love: create meaningful photographs for people who trust me with their stories. And honestly, I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.
