About
I have always been a visual person. As a child, I would pore over National Geographic magazines, getting lost in the stories told through their photos. So, it felt only natural that I would eventually pursue a career in the visual arts. Digital tools like Photoshop, 3D Studio Max, and Maya sparked my passion and ultimately led me to become a character animator at Pixar Animation Studios.
In 2007, the photography bug bit me, drawing me into urban exploration and the challenge of capturing abandoned structures across the U.S. and Europe. As I honed my skills, my focus expanded to landscapes and cityscapes. In all my photos, I strive to tell a story—inviting viewers to lose themselves in the image and imagine being there. My favorite pictures evoke a sense of intrigue and spark curiosity for more.
Eventually I began experimenting with time-lapse photography. For me, time-lapse is the perfect fusion of photography and animation. As an animator, I constantly study movement in great detail, whereas photography forces me to capture a single, fleeting moment. Shooting time-lapse footage is incredibly time-consuming, but the reward is immense when I manage to reveal something breathtaking that would otherwise go unnoticed. My goal is to transport the viewer—to recreate the beauty I felt while standing there in that moment.
My love for nature and adventure has fueled my passion for photography even further. I’ve been fortunate to travel to some breathtaking places around the world, visiting almost every continent. (I haven’t been to Antarctica yet, but it’s on the list!) Capturing the perfect moment requires planning, patience, and dedication. Often, it means early mornings and late nights, but sometimes, it simply means sitting back, soaking in the view, and waiting for the light to shift—until it transforms the scene into something extraordinary. Out in the mountains and canyons, along coastlines and deserts, through forests and grasslands—that’s where I feel most at home, capturing the world through my lens.
I hope to keep creating visuals and telling stories for years to come—using both classic and cutting-edge tools—and sharing them with you.
