I take my passion for photography with me to every event I shoot—whether the commission is for a wedding or engagement, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, holiday party, family or baby portrait, boudoir photos, pet portraiture, home and garden photos, or headshots for executives and actors.

Joe McNally, an extraordinary photojournalist, says: "If you want to be a great photographer, put something interesting in front of the camera." And that is exactly what I try to do with every shot. To produce the best possible photos, I aim for “stress-free photography.” My skills and experience allow me to capture shots in a way that is fun yet efficient. It is my responsibility to ensure that you get exactly what you want, so I stay involved with the process from beginning to end. I often make phone calls and conduct meetings months before the event or shoot.

Working as a photographer is not unlike my days in Hollywood as a manager and movie producer. Problem solving is a common thread among these three occupations. All require me to be a stylist, technical engineer, psychologist, friend and comedian. All necessitate creativity, adaptability and inspiration, as well as the ability to make my subjects feel comfortable, safe, relaxed and even daring. Creating memorable photographs means that I have to be the one person in the room who notices all the visual details: the way the light falls on a shoulder or the tear in someone's eye. It’s about being observant and being at the right place at the right time. And when those moments come, there is only one thing on my mind: getting that shot!

As your photographer, I serve as your eyes and your ears. I feel the moments as you feel them, and I preserve them forever. It is an honor and a deeply fulfilling work. And thank you for your consideration.
