Sometimes the hardest part of creative work isn’t the hours behind the camera or the late nights editing.
It’s watching others take credit for your vision—while trying to convince you that without them, you’re nothing.
I’ve heard it all.
“We exposed you to our networks.”
“We introduced you to people you wouldn’t have met otherwise.”
“You’re nothing without us.”
For years, I poured my creativity, skill, and passion into a niche I loved—crafting one-of-a-kind posters, flyers, and marketing materials that told stories as vivid and dynamic as the performers themselves.
My work wasn’t just decoration. It was art that captured movement, emotion, and culture—something unique and authentic, made with deep understanding of the craft and community.

These are the projects born from curiosity, conviction, and creative hunger, not commercial briefs. And they matter more than you might think.
Read MoreI believe in the magic that happens when a photograph gets it right.
When a rider sees their bond with their horse captured honestly.
When a piece of art outlives the moment and becomes a memory.
When storytelling matters more than scrolling.
But here’s what you don’t know yet:
There will be people who take. And take.
And never give anything back.
You will be called difficult the first time you say no.
You will be ignored the first time you send a bill.
You will be blocked when you ask to be paid fairly.
I’ve photographed horses in motion under stadium lights, designed posters that sold out events, built brands from nothing but ideas, and poured thousands of hours into crafting imagery that stops people mid-scroll.
But some of the hardest lessons in my photography career didn’t come from missed exposures or tricky lighting conditions.
They came from trusting the wrong people with my time, talent, and heart.
