I began having an interest in Photography all the way back in high-school. I had a passion for capturing stories and different perspectives in black and white. I owned my own darkroom at the time and a fully manual Pentax film camera. This is where it all started. I loved the peace and tranquility when I was in the darkroom, while I made my prints. I continued through college taking elective photography courses and graduated from King University with a Bachelors’ Degree in Business Administration and I have worked primarily in Healthcare throughout my professional career. Becoming a photographer was not something I had planned even though I had a love for it, I just did not take it seriously, at the time. My passion for photography continued to grow and while spending many hours volunteering in the community and capturing beautiful moments I decided to return to school to obtain an Associates Degree in Media Technologies-Photography at Pellissippi State. While pursing my degree I really enjoyed photographing food. I grew up around many cooks and bakers in my family and bringing these two passions together became my main focus. I love to create and capture the most beautiful images of food to get the viewer to crave that dish! I currently shoot for a great variety of projects, including commercial, editorial, and Fine Art work. I am based in Knoxville, Tennessee.
