Mission STATEMENT
Simple: Understand exactly what you want and need in a photo, and give it to you. My mission is to understand the various genres of photography (fashion, glam, fitness, etc.), and understand what makes them different. When I shoot, I try to stay as true to the genre as possible, capturing the complete essence of you, while still giving the photo my signature style. When I do that, my mission is complete.
