Website
Carlotta is an actress who sat for a new headshot. We spent most of the session talking about her struggling through the pandemic and this shot, though not what she wanted for her portfolio, captured the introspection and regret of Covid's legacy on so many young lives.

Biography
I am interested in people and communities and how the two interact. I also work as a video presenter and singer/songwriter and consider my work as a photographer another way of communicating. As a singer, I learned to become sensitive to reading a room and understanding how my audience was feeling. I think this sensitivity helps me relate to the people I photograph and hopefully reveal the truth behind their facades.
