Photography Resume

Selected highlights from 18+ years of professional work — magazine covers, national ad campaigns, equine, fashion, and editorial photography. Credits span 2009–2015; this is not a complete record.

Around 2015, I made a deliberate choice to step away from pursuing commercial and editorial work and shift my focus toward private clients — families, equestrians, and individuals. The credits below reflect that earlier chapter. The photography is the same; the clientele changed by design.
