I love to make good images with good people.

My journey has taken me from Michigan to Chicago, to Portland, OR where I am currently based. I began as a photographer and moved into retouching full-time in 2014. I am passionate about the little details that make images great, and I am inspired by happy accidents that I have no way to predict. I’m a cat lover, a Star Trek nerd, an unassuming Midwesterner but a punk rocker at heart.

Post-production skills include on-set compositing, high-end retouching, GIF creation, swaps, color work, and quality control. I am a freelance senior-level retoucher; previously I have worked full time at Splash (now Jellyfish) and Swanson Studio. I specialize in footwear/product and lifestyle retouching, and am particularly skilled at leading projects to maintain quality and consistency.

Get in touch if you’d like to make some outstanding imagery together!
