I am a photographer and high-end retoucher who loves to bring out the beauty in every image. I love to photograph as a storyteller, capturing the most memorable moments in their true form. Retouching is where the photos truly come to life. Whether it is color correcting and retouching to create a particular mood or feeling, or high-end retouching that takes precision, and technical skill, this stage is where my passion lies.
After graduating from University of Maryland Baltimore County with a Visual Arts degree, I worked at Pandora Jewelry for almost 8 years and Hobo Bags for over 2 years. Having spent 10 years in the corporate world, I decided it was time to start my own business in 2020.
While at Pandora, I spent time as a graphic designer and a photographer. I worked along side a prop stylists to come up with creative and captivating images, working with props, and analyzing the performance of current images and product. Along with shooting and managing our in-house studio, I also handled retouching of styled, product, and lifestyle/model images. These images were used in social media, e-comm, e-blasts, web. Select images were used in-store and in national print materials. I also photographed retail, PR, or in-store events and always jumped on any opportunity to broaden my skill set and challenge myself. At Hobo, I was the digital designer and also set up a small in-house studio to photograph supplemental styled images. Retouching included styled imagery, editing images to change colors or styles, and lifestyle imagery.
