Artist Statement:

Working as a studio photographer, I conceptualize, execute, and create images that are unique to the world I am surrounded by. The images that I produce are highly constructed. I create concepts that are transformed into visual imagery, and are often inspired by history, stereotypes, and beauty. Each image is created as a reality, building relationships between real objects, environments, and models to clearly communicate my concept. It is the layering and building of influences that allow me to continue to develop and expand the caliber of my work.
