Everyday things

Welcome to My Photography Space!

I’m excited to share with you the everyday moments I capture through my lens as a photographer. This blog is my creative haven, a space that feels more like home compared to the fast, noisy world of social media. Here, I can slow down, share my stories, and showcase my work in a way that feels real and meaningful to me.

You’ll find a mix of my favorite photos, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and even video blogs where I talk about the experiences that shape my photography journey. I hope you find inspiration, joy, and maybe even a bit of curiosity as you explore.

I’d love to hear from you—constructive feedback is always welcome. So grab a coffee, get comfortable, and enjoy the view!

Capturing the Moments at the AAO Conference in Chicago

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend and photograph the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) conference in the heart of Chicago. Armed with a Canon R3, I immersed myself in the vibrant atmosphere of the conference halls and exhibit spaces, capturing the energy and essence of this world-class event.

Behind the Scenes at a Medical Conference

One of the perks of covering a medical conference is getting a front-row seat to the latest cutting-edge advancements in healthcare. It’s always fascinating to see the innovations that are shaping the future of medicine. Recently, I had the chance to witness something pretty unique: a demonstration involving a cadaver, used to showcase a new surgical tool.

Now, while I can't dive into the technical details (and honestly, I might not even understand them all!), there’s something undeniably cool about watching medical professionals at work up close. The precision, the focus—it’s a different kind of artistry. You can feel the gravity of the moment as they introduce technology that could potentially change lives.

It’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do. I get to be in the room for these incredible events, capturing the energy and progress that comes with each new breakthrough. Even when I can’t share all the specifics, it’s still exciting to be part of documenting these milestones in the medical field.

Hot Cheeto Guy

I recently had the opportunity to cover a special event featuring businessman and motivational speaker Richard Montañez at the McAninch Art Center in Glen Ellyn, IL. Montañez, known for his incredible story of rising from humble beginnings to becoming a top executive at PepsiCo and the mastermind behind Flamin' Hot Cheetos, shared powerful insights with the audience.

His speech was both inspiring and thought-provoking, filled with personal anecdotes about perseverance, creativity, and breaking barriers. It was a memorable evening, and the energy in the room was palpable as he engaged with the audience, offering a message of hope and empowerment.

This event wasn’t just about a book signing—it was a moment to witness someone who has truly made an impact share his journey in person.
