Welcome Gallerists and Curators!
Whether you’re promoting exhibitions, connecting with collectors, reaching new audiences, or building an enduring archive, compelling photography is essential. I provide high-quality documentation that captures the essential qualities of the work you champion. I bring a deep understanding of the grammar of contemporary photography, complemented by clear communication, consistent results, and thoughtfully crafted images delivered on deadline.
I'm offering a $150 discount on my Exhibition Documentation Package for shoots taking place before January 1, 2027.
The package includes 10 artwork reproductions for $700 (normally $850).
Need more images? Add them to your shoot for $35 each.

Meticulous Post Production

How It Works
-
After you fill out the contact form, I'll follow up with you within 24 hours to schedule a free consultation (typically 15 min). We'll discuss your goals for the shoot and what you want to document. I have a few simple intake questions that will help me prepare a quote. If you wish to proceed, we'll schedule the shoot.

As I document the work, you'll be able to preview raw shots on my color-calibrated laptop. You will have direct input on exposures, colors, angles and crops. We make adjustments to ensure what you see is what you get.

Photography is essential for telling your story and conveying the true character of your work. You’ve invested so much in your projects, your documentation should honor that effort. Whether you're applying for grants, proposing exhibitions, or selling work to clients, great documentation is crucial to communicating your vision clearly and effectively.
We’ve all taken photos that somehow miss the magic of what we see before us—and it can be so frustrating. Our brains naturally edit what we notice, while the camera records everything equally. Details our minds gloss over can suddenly dominate an image. My approach bridges that gap, creating photographs that feel truer to how we actually experience the work.
Let’s work together to create something radiant!
