I’ll Do What it Takes to Get the Shot.

I’m not your average photographer—if you need me to hang out of a boat, climb under a truck, or brave a snowstorm to get the perfect shot, I’m all in. For over 15 years, I’ve specialized in creating epic visuals for outdoor gear, military technology, large-scale logistics, and lifestyle brands. My work is all about capturing moments that tell a story and help brands connect with real people.

Whether it’s showcasing the durability of outdoor gear in rugged environments or highlighting the intricate technology behind cutting-edge military products, I thrive on pushing the limits to capture what makes your brand stand out. But it doesn’t stop there.

I Live for the Extreme

Photography isn’t just a job—it’s my adventure. From crawling through mud, braving massive mosquitos, to hanging off helicopters, my commitment to getting the shot that tells your story is unrelenting. Your products are designed to perform in extreme conditions, and I make sure my photography reflects that.

If you need a photographer who’s up for any challenge—day or night, snow or sun—I’m your guy. When your gear needs to look as extreme as it performs, you need a photographer who’s not afraid to go the extra mile (or ten).
