I’m an editorial photographer and photo illustrator based in New York City, raised in Ohio with roots in Louisiana. My work spans portraiture, documentary, still life, and photo illustration, with a real sweet spot for travel photography.

I previously documented 300+ public artworks across all five boroughs for the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs' Percent for Art collection. I’m also a founding artist of Havurah, a grassroots Jewish arts collective, and photo editor of its cultural publication, Verklempt.

I’m a recurring visual contributor to The New Yorker, New York Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and Tablet Magazine.

Always happy to connect. Feel free to email if you wanna yap or have an assignment in mind :)
