Why a book and why now?
It Began with a Photograph
For years, family, friends, and fellow photographers encouraged me to share my work. With the guidance of my mentor, Greg Gorman, and the creative expertise of Gary Johns, I finally brought this dream to life in my first book.
Together, we traveled to Verona to oversee its production, ensuring it would be as beautiful and evocative as possible. Stories Untold is a vibrant journey through my eyes: a collection of people, places, and moments that I hope will spark curiosity and connection.

Last Sheet Printed
After five days on print we finish the last page with delight and relief.
Finally It Arrives Home
A soul searching, sometimes terrifying experience, the making of this book has taught me so much about myself. I am so grateful to the team who helped me come out of the shadows and stand tall.
