1. what inspires you?-

I get inspired by the most random things. I can be driving, and see something on the side of the road the will give me an idea. Just talking, and joking with a person can inspire me. You’d be surprised if you knew how I got some of my inspirations.

2. who have you worked with?

I have worked with tons of models, from Nashville, as well as models from around the US. Published models, as well as inspiring models. I have worked with artists, local and major. An amazing team of stylist, MUA’s, and other photographers.

3. what are some future projects your working on?

Future projects that I will be working on. There are some events coming up, where I will be photographing and doing videography as well. Tons of photo shoots, look books, as well as video shoots. Also some magazine projects. I plan on doing a lot of traveling in the upcoming months as well.

5. what gives you your passion to do what you do??

I love doing this, so that alone just gives me the drive and motivation to keep doing it everyday. I love to see the expression on peoples faces when they see what I’ve done. Its an amazing feeling. I mean, I can’t see myself doing anything else.

6. what advice would you give to someone trying to do something in your field?

I would tell them to work, work, work!! Its not easy, but if you put the time and dedication into it. You’ll get positive results every time. You’ll be surprised at how fast you grow.

7. how did you get to where you are now?

I studied like crazy! Worked hard, hit a lot of bumps in the road, but who doesn’t. I knew this was what I wanted to do, so I put everything aside and made this my main focus. Its paying off slowly but surely.
