I moved to NYC and then Austria and then back to Colorado after graduating college and lost my last job in 2020. I had talked a big game about starting a photography business and traveling the world and losing my job seemed like the right opportunity. I am based out of the US and traveling with every opportunity possible. I love to create beautiful visuals along the way to inspire you to live a life that you love.
