I use photography to capture joy, love and connection. I also like to capture realness, which is not always picture-perfect.

My project, Positive Light, offers family portrait sessions to capture the loving moments of the individuals and families served by non-profit organizations in the Greater Washington DC region.

Using lifestyle and documentary photography, Positive Light helps non-profits move away from pity-based storytelling, toward respectful human-connection story-telling.

Positive Light aims to change community perceptions about the underserved, and helps to highlight the important work of human service non-profit organizations.
