After high school, I joined the Marine Corps as a combat correspondent. The 12 years I spent in the Corps set me on a course that I never imagined possible. I have been fortunate to meet many people from all walks of life...from people in my community to celebrities to high-profile government officials while at the Executive Office of the President and the U.S. House of Representatives.

Kaif has been doing photography since 2020. He started by taking photos on his phone of his girlfriend. In 2020, he picked up an actual camera and started doing it more as a hobby.

I have always been interested in the arts and have found enjoyment in filling my free time experimenting with artistic activities. In my late teens, I started dedicating my creative energy towards photography. Through taking specialized courses in Advanced Art with a concentration in Commercial Photography throughout high school, I knew I had found my true passion. I soon began freelancing and interning with local professional photographers in my home state of Maine. To continue my education and strengthen my craft, I moved to Boston to attend The New England Institute of Art, where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Photography. In 2014, I officially launched Hillary Deane Photography, where I focused on wedding, event and portrait photography. I also began second shooting for other photographers in the Greater Boston area. In 2023, I moved to Washington, DC.

I have a deep passion for capturing emotions! After taking a four-month photography course, I developed a strong technical foundation and an eye for composition Since then I’ve completed over 350 mini-sessions. I’m equally passionate about both the photography and editing processes, finding joy in bringing my creative vision to life in both stages. As a photographer, I am always eager to learn and improve thus I constantly explore new techniques and approaches!
