Aurora Media

Extremely competent, professional and articulate photographer who knows how to get the essence of a person to show within the photos. Experienced, well-traveled and kind, I work well with people of all ages and can find something unique in every setting.

My goal as an artist is to transform something as mundane as a puddle or shaft of light into
a visual landscape that evokes a story, a memory, a sensation. The magic found in transformation peaks my curiosity—like a caterpillar growing its wings—and it’s this metamorphosis that can be found as an underlying theme in most of my work, along with the power of storytelling and intuition to enhance an image or experience.
