Blairsville, Pennsylvania Lifestyle, Senior & Branding + Commercial Photographer
Serving Indiana County and Western Pennsylvania with sentimental family sessions, documentary weddings, senior portraits, and strategic commercial imagery.
I’m proud to be known for my authentic, story-driven imagery. For over 20 years, I’ve captured the loud, messy, beautiful parts of life that truly matter — serving families, brides, seniors, and businesses throughout Indiana County and Western Pennsylvania who value real moments over perfection.
From sentimental family sessions and documentary-style wedding photography to personality-driven senior portraits and strategic branding and commercial imagery, my work blends sentiment, humor, and connection so your images feel intentional, confident, and real.
"Life has handed me enough hard things to understand what really matters. Those moments ALL changed me and they shape how I photograph. Perfect doesn’t move me. Real does.

…a down-to-earth, people-loving, small-town Pennsylvania photographer with a big sense of humor and an even bigger heart. I don’t take life too seriously, I’m a little sarcastic, hugely sentimental, and pretty damn good at my job.
I’m based in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and for over 20 years I’ve photographed weddings, families, seniors, and portraits both locally and across the world. My clients tend to have a lot in common: they come from small towns, they’re sentimental, they value people over things, they don’t take themselves too seriously, and, just like me, they’re not afraid to laugh (and maybe cuss a little).
This space is where I share what I’ve been up to, from heartfelt wedding days to family chaos to milestone senior sessions. Think of it like my digital front porch…pull up a chair, stay as long as you’d like, and bring some friends with you.
My calendar fills fast because my clients aren’t just booking photos, they’re investing in proof of their story. Want in?
