I’ve always been drawn to technology—even as a kid, I was the one taking things apart just to see how they worked. When I was a teenager, I naturally became the friend with a camera or camcorder, always documenting our adventures, family events, or even creating music videos and art projects with friends. Over time, my collection of camera gear grew, and so did my interest in capturing moments—people began to notice my work and started offering to pay me for their projects.
At first, photography and videography were side hustles, but in 2018, at the advice of close friends and family, I took it to the next level by launching a website and building a presence on social media to market my services. When the pandemic hit in 2020, I decided to get serious—I formed an LLC and opened a business account to help supplement my 9-to-5 job. By 2022, the demand for my work had grown so much that I was able to go full-time as a professional photographer and videographer.
As for choosing New Orleans as my home base, it just made sense—this is where I grew up, so I’m deeply familiar with the culture, the landscape, and I have my support system here. New Orleans has this vibrant energy and incredible mix of cultures, music, and artistry that fuels my creativity. There’s always something happening here, and it’s the perfect place for someone who wants to capture authentic, memorable moments for people from all walks of life.
