With  20 years of photography experience and a life shaped by frequent travel, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for spaces that feel intentional, warm, and thoughtfully designed.

I’ve stayed in everything from charming countryside cottages to refined boutique hotels, and what always stays with me is not just how a place looks — but how it feels. That feeling is what I aim to capture through The Stay Edit.

I believe the most compelling property images don’t just document a space — they tell a story. They invite the viewer in. They create a sense of arrival, comfort, and possibility.

Through The Stay Edit, I work with hosts, property owners, and designers who care about experience, detail, and atmosphere. My approach is calm, editorial, and design-forward, creating imagery that helps properties stand out, attract better guests, and feel as elevated online as they do in real life.

When I’m not photographing spaces, you’ll usually find me traveling, collecting inspiration, and noticing the small details that make a place unforgettable.

I don’t just photograph properties. I help shape how they’re experienced.
