There’s a certain kind of energy you can’t direct but can only see and follow. Chandler and Elán live in it. It’s the kind of movement that isn’t for show but just who they are. No switch to turn on, no performance to fake. Just consistency, grit, and a mindset that shows up long before the camera does. I love shoots like these…the ones that feel less like a shoot and more like keeping up 🏃‍♀️ Shot for @elsewheremvmt X @vuoriclothing

Sport, but make it editorial. @carosullyy wearing @jolynclothing — sport edition. 
A blend of movement, energy, and elevated storytelling through a commercial lens. As a commercial sports and fashion photographer, I’m always drawn to moments that sit between performance and style—where function meets feeling. Feeling lucky to play around with the most fabulous crew ✨ 📸 me + @alexaclayfieldphoto Creative director @alexaclayfieldphoto 👚🎽 @rachelsummerr

Working with Megan in Malibu, wearing vintage Johnny Was, it was one of those moments where everything just aligned. We played, we laughed, we connected, and found those quieter, more tender moments in between. Photography to me is as much about the connection shared as it is about the image created. An editorial rooted in fashion, but driven by feeling

Gracie wearing @fpmovement in the Eastern Sierras This was a really special day hanging and shooting with Gracie and Alijah — two beautiful souls who just make sense together. Their inquisitive and light natures made for a wonderful day in harsh, cold conditions (it was actually snowing when we all showed up)

Dan is someone I have known about for a while now. Someone in my friend group who motivates, inspires, and is nothing short of a true athlete... and an absolute sweetheart. Someone who gives with their whole heart. He is currently training to attempt the longest bike ride in the world — aiming to break the speed record (around 75 days) from Alaska to Patagonia. Which, in itself is truly insane 🤯 No support crew. No safety net. Just him, his bike, and the road. The level of grit, grace, and determination this takes is hard to put into words. It’s not just about speed — it’s about endurance, trust, and a willingness to keep going when most people would stop. Watching someone chase something this big, this uncertain, and this demanding is rare. And somehow, he carries it all with humility. Really grateful to witness this chapter — and to capture even a small piece of it. PS @smithoptics you HAVE to sponsor him!!

Adventuring in the flatlands during the last storm with Caitlin and Lena. Snowboarding is something I grew up doing but never fully found a way to capture until now. Getting to link with Caitlin while she was in Mammoth guiding an Arc’teryx Academy class and push into this space with her and Lena felt really special. Grateful to explore new boundaries with some seriously badass women 💃💪

I think I’ve been chasing water my whole life. Not just the surface of it, but what it does to you; how it changes your breathing, your body, your sense of time. I grew up shaped by it. It’s in my background, in my habits, in the way I move through the world. Water runs through me in ways I’m still learning to explain. So I keep trying to photograph it —in it, out of it , searching for images that hold the same fluidity. The same surrender. The same quiet strength. The way it shifts, adapts, carries both calm and power. That’s what I’m always trying to capture. Not just water itself, but its essence. Its movement. Its refusal to stay still. Maybe I’m just trying to make visible something that’s always been inside me.
