Previously worked for:
As a veteran myself—I served as a U.S. Navy Corpsman with the 1st Marine Division—I understand the traditions, sacrifices, and significance behind these occasions. I continue to work alongside those who serve by photographing military events of all kinds, approaching every assignment with the professionalism, attention to detail, and respect the occasion demands.
That experience is especially valuable for military photography in Washington, DC, where official functions, ceremonies, access requirements, and longstanding traditions often demand familiarity with both protocol and place.
From retirements and promotions to formal ceremonies, receptions, conferences, and official functions, I photograph military events with an understanding of both the moments that matter and the protocol surrounding them. I work attentively without becoming part of the event, creating a complete record of the people, traditions, and details that brought everyone together.
Military ceremonies are built around details, traditions, and moments that happen only once. Familiarity matters. I anticipate the sequence of events so I can be in position before the important moments happen rather than reacting after they begin.
Whether I have a few minutes during an event or time for a dedicated portrait, I approach servicemembers as individuals rather than uniforms. I use intentional light, clear direction, and the environment to create photographs that feel polished and dignified without becoming stiff.
Military ceremonies have their own rhythm, structure, and expectations. I know when I can move, when I need to stay out of the way, and which moments are likely to matter most to the servicemembers and families involved.
Since becoming a professional photographer, I’ve continued working extensively within the military community. That experience allows me to work confidently within the structure of an event while still paying attention to the expressions, interactions, and quieter moments that make it personal.
My goal is to photograph the occasion with the respect it deserves without losing sight of the people at the center of it.
