Chicago-Based creative director and photographer

Based in Chicago, I specialize in creating visually compelling stories through photography and art direction. With experience across music, fashion, and marketing, I bring a sharp eye for aesthetics and a strong creative vision to every project.

TOLS X Creative Department

This project explores the essence of collaboration, style, and creative identity within a collective. The concept was developed around the brand The Creative Department. The shoot highlights each member’s unique perspective while maintaining a cohesive visual language through refined styling, intentional lighting, and composition. By blending elements of editorial photography and candid documentation, the visuals communicate unity, artistry, and the dynamic rhythm of creative exchange.

aesthete

As the co-founder, creative director, photographer, and writer of Aesthete, I’ve developed a coffee table book series that highlights the stories of entrepreneurs, designers, and artists. Aesthete is a celebration of collaboration and networking, capturing the essence of creativity through visually stunning photography and thoughtful storytelling. Each edition showcases individuals from diverse fields, presenting their journeys in an aesthetically pleasing format that inspires and connects like-minded visionaries.

Introspection

This visual piece captures a reflective and cinematic portrayal of a milestone — turning thirty. The concept centers on growth, self-awareness, and the quiet confidence that comes with a new decade. Set in a modern home, the shoot blends themes of wealth, focus, and contemporary elegance through intentional lighting, natural textures, and composed movement. Every frame was designed to feel intimate yet elevated, illustrating the balance between aspiration and presence. The result is a visual narrative that celebrates maturity, creativity, and the beauty of evolution.

Each shot is designed to tell a personal story, creating visually striking images that resonate deeply with the viewer.
