First of all, thank you for checking out my work!

My job is to be part of your calm, hope and direction, to create ceremonial or traditional moments. 

As an Officiant, Photographer and Event Organizer; they call me a "zeitgeist," 

I have been gifted with the ability to put into words, moments and photographs what the heart wants to say and creative to manifest your dream day into fruition.

Big or small.  

I spent 18 years in the funeral industry organizing large and small events in days. 

I am an ordained minister with an MBA from Pepperdine University & PhD from Azusa Pacific University. 

My strength is being a visionary who can see things before they exist to anticipate all needs and low stress organization of bringing good people together so great things can happen! 

I have produced hundreds of events and photographed thousands of stories and lead a team of professional individuals who believe in the criticalness of story telling. 

I am principally an Artist.
I do this stuff out of a lifelong love for photography, a profound appreciation of the 'feminine mystique' and a quest for personal and artistic growth. This is a welcome and decided change from what I have done for most of my career. I want to develop as a photographer and a person, and to express my vision and ambition to find beauty, serenity and peace in this lifetime. I enjoy meeting new people and I deeply appreciate the female sensibility. This adventure in pursuit of beautiful images, a clear vision and refined technical skills is a balm to the sores wrought by tragedy, war, torment and heartbreak. It soothes and feeds the soul. And that, my friends, is what it's all about.

I believe photographs are a time capsule to an amazing experience in our lives.  One chance given to capture so many perfect moments to give glimpses for  generations to come upon the day you celebrated life!

It would be an honor to be part of your story.
