Below is a sample of my photographic work, which is very much focused on telling a story through genuine action and emotion.
I shot this portrait at the couple’s home in Ann Arbor. The photos were used online and in print.
I was tasked with photographing a University of Michigan Museum of Art visitor responding to a survey about his/her experience at the museum, which would accompany a feature story on the same topic. The shot is framed so nicely that some may think this was a staged photo, but I guarantee this is an actual museum visitor responding to an actual survey. 🙂
I like to capture different layers of information in my photos, where the background and foreground details complement each other.
I like to capture moments by showing genuine action (and reaction).
I also like to show a different perspective or point of view.
These portraits of a young researcher illustrated a story about him and his work.
While at the U-M Institute for Social Research, I often photographed events—large and small—under difficult lighting situations, always trying to capture emotion and action in my photos.
An internal client needed photos of a new space: a dining room full of antique pieces donated to the University. I was able to capture the beautiful detail in the room despite the shadows and different colors caused by competing sources of light.
