Editorial & Commercial
Commissioned work
for brands and editors.
The same eye that holds a wedding day holds an editorial set — light-led, story-first, made to live well past the deadline. Available for brand campaigns, lookbooks, publication features, and product stories.
Most of my commercial work begins with a phone call about a feeling. A label needs a story for a new piece. A magazine wants a portrait that reads as warm without reading as soft. A brand needs imagery for the next year that will not look dated in three months.
The studio is comfortable on a still set or a moving location, with a creative director or without one. The work has been featured in National Geographic, Country Living, HuffPost, and on Laughing Squid; commercial commissions have included Puma, Everlight, and editorial portraiture for fashion and hospitality clients. The studio’s documentary instincts translate directly to brand and editorial work.

Personal projects
Three stories I’ve made on my own.
Documentary essays I’ve initiated, photographed, and shared outside the commission stream. They are the work that taught me what photographs are for.

To Grow Old with You
A long-form portrait series on couples who have been married for forty, fifty, sixty years and more. The wedding day, decades on. What love looks like once it has had time to settle into a face. Began as my senior project at BYU and continues today.

Bent, not broken — a scoliosis story
A personal photo essay about living with scoliosis. I was thirteen when I was diagnosed; the brace and the surgery and the decades-long recovery taught me more about photographing the body than any class did. This is the essay I wrote with a camera to tell my younger self what I needed to hear at the time.

The Webster Family — Dwarfism Awareness Month
A photo essay made with Rachel Webster and her parents, Chris and Nancy. Three of the four are little people. The essay was made to mark Dwarfism Awareness Month and went on to be picked up across the web and exhibited at Northwest University. One of the projects I am proudest of having made.
