Months of prep, countless ideas, and an incredible creative team that brought another @atlantafalcons creative days to life.

I’ve always been inspired by @walteriooss iconic Michael Jordan mirror shoot, and this series was an opportunity to pay homage to those images while creating something of our own. The idea of creating this infinite loop, especially alongside our new uniforms heading into the season, just felt right.

We got through a few stressful days with broken mirrors, very tight spaces, a live falcon, and a lot of house music… but we got there.

Grateful to everyone who helped turn the idea into something real!

First NFL and Broncos game in over 14 years, wild. I was keen on bringing a camera to the game to capture moments—especially for my beloved Broncos. Decided to rent the @fujifilmx_us GFX100RF, over 102mp, made possible by @aperturent perfect for cropping in as much as possible, being close to the field, but far enough where needed as much details as possible.

My dream has always been to capture the NFL, but also be on the field one day in the iconic tan vest, so this was just a taste of what it felt like. I loved being able to be in the moment with my parents, especially my dad who help me fall in love with the Broncos, but also getting to see my amazing and talented creative friends on the field at work—it was a sight to see.

I know one day, I’ll be able to step on the field with a camera in hand and I look forward to it.

Thank you to @jaybendlinphoto @brandonmagnus_photo and @benswanson.photo for stopping and chatting + allowing me to take your photo!

Just like that we wrapped up the track & field season at Hayward Field. I was the lead photographer for TrackTown USA handling both on field coverage & also leading an amazing team of photographers. Over the last few months I was given the responsibility of improving our digital asset management, building out a team with the help of BWP, and speeding up our live event coverage workflow. Proud to say we have delivered on all fronts from an analytical standpoint but more importantly helped so many other photographers reach their own goals! Multiple world class events, countless records for the athletes - Can’t ask for much more!

What took this summer to the next level was seeing my photos up on the Nike building - and having those same Nike athletes hyped for me & my work.

A huge thank you to TrackTown USA front office for your trust.

But like they say “THERE IS NO FINISHLINE” as my track season is not over yet, I still have something in the works.

Stay tuned.

FIFA World Cup 2026 🏁
Hard to even put it all into words.
These were the days I prayed so hard about and to see them come to reality was an experience I’m so grateful for. And to capture it all right here in my hometown was something I’ll never forget!

Thank you to everyone who’s supported me along this journey of photography and who pushed me to follow my dreams. Little did I think picking up a camera in college to cover sports would’ve led to these moments. I’m so blessed to be surrounded by so many amazing people. Thank you again for your support. To God be the glory.

Film’s not dead, yall 🎞️📸👩‍🔬

Developing 4x5 color negatives on set sounds crazy (bc it is) but it is now in the top five things I’m most proud of. Nothing will ever beat getting to watch these players’ reactions to seeing the first photos of them in the new uniforms.

This came down to doing days and days of research, a little bit of blind faith, some great insights from @todd_burandt and the best crew we could ask for. Oh, and of course, some bedazzled gas masks ✨

So incredibly thankful for the entire team, but couldn’t do this without @brandonmagnus_photo who constantly comes up with crazy photo ideas and has so much trust in what we do. With @graceberhard as my incredible development partner and @serenatonin scanning & printing lightning fast, this came together perfectly.

So lucky to get to have a small part in making this launch what it was. Love this team and love these uniforms ❤️🖤🤍
