Why ObsidianShot?

Eye for the Extraordinary Moment

Decades behind the lens have sharpened one thing above all: knowing the exact instant the shot becomes legendary. I see the light before it lands, the angle that flatters your curves and facial features, the framing that makes your presence impossible to ignore. Details others miss become the focal point that stops people in their tracks when it comes to my work.

When the moment is right I press the shutter — never a second too early or too late, and the results are incredible. That instinctive timing turns good portraits into images that command attention and is burned into memory.

You at the Center — Always

Every single element of the ObsidianShot process is built around one truth: you are the story. The lighting, the pacing, the guidance, the editing — nothing is generic or rushed. You remain front and center from the first conversation to the final frame so the portraits don’t just look powerful — they're unmistakably you.

This client-first approach ensures your personality, strength, and essence shine through in every image — creating portraits that are authentically yours rather than a mere photographer’s template. With ObsidianShot, the focus is always you, and the final images become a powerful expression of your presence.

The Visionary Behind the Lens

ObsidianShot isn't a new venture — it's the culmination of a lifetime behind the camera. Trained in photography from a young age, I spent decades perfecting an artistic eye that turns those ordinary moments into incredible and unforgettable art. From the dramatic beauty of the glaciers and wild scenery in Alaska — to the electric pulse of lavish Las Vegas, my work has been revered for its depth, drama, and raw emotional power.

This is not hobbyist photography. This is the refined art of a seasoned photographer who has already captured some of the world’s most breathtaking places… and is now ready to capture you in all your true and raw beauty.

An Experience of Rare Elegance

Every ObsidianShot session is deliberately intimate, unique, unhurried, and elevated. When you shoot with Obsidian, you step into a space where technical precision meets artistic intuition and unbelievable posture. I guide with calm authority, bringing out the strength, posture, grace, and that inner quiet power that you already possess — never manufactured, always authentic and forever bold.

The result? Portraits that feel regal. Timeless. A little dangerous in their beauty, but confident in their presentation. These are images that you'll be proud to frame, share, and pass down as part of your legacy.

The Pursuit of Perfection

Photography is an obsession for me. When I pick up a camera, I ask: How do I capture this... but make it unforgettable?

That relentless pursuit of when emotion is captured in a single frame defines my work. It's why Alaskans still talk about my Juneau images that made their town feel alive, and why Las Vegas through my lens pulses with intimacy. My eye doesn't just see; it hunts for the extraordinary.

With ObsidianShot, the focus is on you. I don't settle for good portraits. I pursue one that reveals your strength, your elegance, your fire — the shot that stops time and commands every eye.

Reserved for Those Who Value Mastery

ObsidianShot operates at the highest level — because extraordinary work demands it. Sessions are intentionally limited. The standard is uncompromising. Only women who recognize the difference between ordinary photography and heirloom art are invited in.

If you are ready to see yourself the way the world should — powerful, polished, and unforgettable — then this is your moment. The question is never “Can I work with ObsidianShot?”

It’s whether you are ready to become part of the story.

Obsidian Process

The Obsidian Process

Every session begins with a vision and ends with something unforgettable. Here is exactly how the experience unfolds when you choose ObsidianShot.

Define Your Vision

You decide the direction — whether it’s a powerful portrait, a modeling portfolio, an intimate lingerie series, or something entirely unique. You choose the mood you want to capture: quiet strength, bold confidence, timeless elegance, dramatic intensity — whatever feeling you want the final images to carry. This conversation shapes everything that follows.

The Focus

Together we select the date, time, and location that work best for you. Whether it’s a single focused session or a series spread across weeks or months, the schedule is built around your life and your goals. Every detail — lighting, wardrobe direction, pacing — is planned so the day itself feels effortless and elevated.

Align & Prepare

Before we ever pick up the camera, everything is locked in. I send you a detailed prep guide with wardrobe suggestions, mood references, and posing direction. You gather the exact outfits, props, or looks we discussed. We double-check location, lighting setup, timing, and any special requests. This step removes every possible surprise so you arrive relaxed, confident, and fully prepared.

The Session

In the moment, the focus is entirely on you. Calm guidance, precise direction, and complete creative control come together so you can relax into the process and bring your vision to life. Every frame is captured with the same obsessive eye that has defined my work for decades.

The Obsidian Forge

After the shoot, the real mastery begins. Through advanced retouching and artistic refinement, each image is polished to its highest potential — never artificial, always authentic. This is where raw captures become heirloom pieces that exceed every expectation.

Delivery & Legacy

You receive your complete gallery in a private, high-resolution online proofing space. From there you get the final files in every format you need. And then the real impact begins — because images created at this level don’t just sit in a folder. They draw attention, spark conversation, and become part of how the world sees you from that moment forward.

My Story

Photography has never been a "career" for me in the traditional sense. There are no big milestones or turning points because I’ve never chased that path. I’ve always just seen something beautiful—whether it’s a landscape, a moon shot, or a scene—and thought, “Man, that would be an awesome photo.” So I snap it. No heavy editing, no color grading on landscapes. If it was perfect in the moment, I leave it alone. The beauty was already there; my job was to capture it exactly as I saw it.

In Juneau, people in the Facebook groups started raving about my photos. Shots all across the valley, downtown, the mountains, the glacier, hiking trails, Douglas Island—they kept asking for more. When I asked why, they said they loved seeing their hometown through the eyes of someone who’d never been there before. They said I captured the vibrance and beauty in a way that made them feel it fresh again. That appreciation—people’s eyes lighting up, the comments, the shares—that’s what keeps me going. It’s not about awards. It’s about showing people the world the way I experience it and watching their reaction.

Las Vegas was different but just as defining. That’s where I got deep into the technical side—Photoshop (self-taught since around 2003), green screen, lighting, live streaming, camera tricks. I’d make Instagram reels where I’d disappear behind smoke, or I’d live stream from the top of parking garages in Downtown Summerlin with Red Rock Canyon behind me. Tens of thousands of followers on LiveMe, people recognizing me in public, constant selfies and videos that resonated because of the detail, the lighting, the backdrops. I became kind of a social figure there—not an influencer in the polished sense, but someone people connected with. And yeah, I got mocked for shooting with a phone. But I was pulling crystal-clear moon shots and detailed landscapes on a Samsung S21 Ultra. That stigma never made sense to me, and it still doesn’t.

Now I’m shifting focus. I’ve captured enough of the world’s beauty—landscapes, moons, abstract moments. I’ve done the investigative work, the videography, the live streams, the audio engineering, the music production. But the people part? That’s where the real fire is now. It’s time to capture the beauty of you. Not just a photo — a whole experience. I want to roll out the red carpet, let you strut with all your sass and style, and capture your attitude, your essence, your raw unapologetic aura. I want the perfect pose, the perfect light on your hair, the perfect shadow on your face, the perfect expression that says exactly who you are. I want to reach into your core and pull out the real you — then show the world in a way that draws eyes, melts people, and leaves them speechless.

I started ObsidianShot because I refused to let the phone-camera mockery hold me back any longer. I was told I couldn’t be taken seriously, but the results proved otherwise — crisp moon shots, vibrant landscapes, and people genuinely moved by my work. There are no more excuses. If you’re sitting there thinking “I want this but I’m afraid,” or “Will I look stupid in front of the camera?” — I understand. I lived that fear for years. Every session gets the full obsession, the full attention, and the full pursuit of perfection. Because when the photos drop, they don’t just sit in a folder. They command attention. They spark conversation. And that's exactly the point.
