Field notes.
I'm a photographer and mechanical engineer based in Reno, Nevada. For the past eight years I've made portraits and landscapes here, using long familiarity with the region, its weather, and its light to make pictures that feel particular to a place rather than generic.
The work is a mix of personal projects around Northern Nevada and commissioned sessions for clients: graduation portraits, couples and engagements, real estate, and a small amount of editorial. I shoot digital and film, and I'm a certified FAA Part 107 pilot for aerial work.
My standard is simple: make pictures worth keeping.
If you're considering working together, send a note. I generally reply within 48 hours, and I'm happy to talk through the shape of a session: what you want it to feel like, where it should happen, how the resulting images will live.
