Kpop Demon Hunters
Feb. 17, 2026
Some shoots just feel big and this was one of them. ‘Kpop Demon Hunters’ had turned into a global phenomenon and it was the first time all 6 women (3 voice actors and 3 singers) had been photographed together.
In a short amount of time we had to shoot a cover, an inside spread, doubles and singles so we had to be prepared and very specific about what we wanted to capture at each moment.
The girls and their teams brough some incredible fashion that was a joy to shoot. It was one of those shoots where if you stop shooting for a second then an army of hair and makeup artists rush on set to make touchups.
It’s exhilarating to be behind the camera with so many people on set working to make the images the best they can be.
Christoph Waltz
Feb. 6, 2026
I wanted to do something a little different with this shoot so I brought out the Arri tungesten hot lights. I love lighting portraits In an “old-school” cinematic way.
There is something that always amazes me about the way tungesten lights give eveything that nice, warm glow and bounce off the skin. Of course it makes it extra fun to have Christoph Waltz in front of your lens.
Wagner Moura
Jan. 30, 2026
This shoot with Wagner Moura for Variety came together quickly and was a blast to do.
My assistant and I moved around this corporate campus with a simple umbrella catching shots as we went. The sky was partly cloudy with the sun peaking out and going behind the clouds as we shot. Typically that would be very frustrating, but we balanced our strobe so that when the sun was out our strobe was just filling in the shadows, and when the sun was behind the clouds our strobe acted as the key.
I love being mobile and moving around and trying to create space for the intangable, unplanned moments to happen.
In this shoot I was also shooting for the spread which the creative director needed for the layout. You can see the spread below as the last image.
Too much fun was had in one day.
Lewis Pullman
Dec. 18, 2025
A fun shoot with Lewis Pullman for Variety In Los Feliz. I love an outdoor winter shoot in Southern California - even around noon the sun Is coming in from the side (rather than overhead) and with a little diffusion and bounce you can really shape the light.

Model: Naina Tri, Two Management
Exploring contrast through styling and setting. From the quiet tones of an enormous tree to the city sidewalk and the iconic LA streetlights, both looks play with balance and restraint — line, texture, and the muted palette found on an early morning walk in Los Angeles.
Both looks share a restrained palette and a focus on shape, tone, and attitude.
Jason Blum Variety Cover

Blumhouse founder and CEO Jason Blum, photographed for the cover of Variety.
For this shoot, I leaned into some of the visual language of horror — dramatic contrast, directional light — but kept it balanced with an editorial sensibility that still flatters and feels cinematic.

Cooper Hoffman photographed at the Chateau Marmont for a Variety Next digital feature.
I always love shooting at the Chateau Marmont — it’s one of those rare places where the walls just ooze with history and character. It seems like anything is possible. This was a quick, spontaneous session, balancing natural and artificial light to shape a mood of quiet tension.
Sara Sampaio

I did this shoot for WWD on the rooftop of the L'Ermitage Beverly Bills on a summer afternoon. We had been getting some nice late summer marine layer the days before so I was hoping it might stick around but no luck. It was all well and good though.
Shooting in bright sun can actually be a little intimidating because it can be very harsh, but you just have to know how to work with the light to get the most out of your subject.
I did a few different setups using the light in different ways and cajoling the publicist to bounce or flag the light accordingly. But it’s easy when you are photographing a Victoria Secret angel.
LeAnne Rimes
July 10, 2025
I photographed LeAnn Rimes for the “Healthy Skin Issue” of Flow Space. The magazine asked me to deliver warm, glowing images of LeAnn to go with their cover story about the singer’s health journey and struggle with psoriasis.
While this shoot was editorial, I approached it like I would a commercial shoot and delivered images that project health and wellness with a warm, glowing background, skin tones and happy subject.
