Trans and gender-nonconforming people are under attack. Pictures are a meaningful way I can support some of the most vulnerable people around me.
A good headshot can help you get a job. It makes a powerful first—and lasting—impression on a hiring manager. A portrait can validate how you see yourself, confirming your outside matches your inside, and it’s crazy empowering on socials and dating apps.
I’ve been adjacent to the queer community my whole life. A lot of my family is gay. I cofounded my high school’s GSA in the 90s. I’ve had close trans friends for 20+ years. It’s a lot of work to find and own yourself (believe me, I know), and I want to celebrate, honor, and amplify it.
Doing this lets me meet awesome new people, practice my craft, and expand my portfolio. I hope you refer your friends to me for their own pictures, trans or no.
