I've covered everything from San Francisco conferences and galas to witchy somatic dance workshops. I know when to silently blend in and when to draw something out of the crowd.

Your photos are out there meeting people online while you sleep. I create portraits that get at something underneath — come to the studio or I'll drop by.

There's a sly finesse to creating the perfect San Francisco wedding. I know when to include your mother-in-law's joy and when to distract her elsewhere. Whether it's city hall or an estate, all weddings get the same artistry and care.

The shoot people are most nervous about yet most glad they did. Easy as trying on fun outfits with a friend who magically knows your angles. San Francisco boudoir photography has vintage furniture & natural light, or maybe your place is killer.

I love to shoot old school film while traveling. And queer joy in the woods, because the eyeshadow is the window to the soul.

About

I love creating imagery with comfort, reaction, and honesty — it's hard to dismiss the charm of a story told true. As long as that truth involves retouching your bangs.

I started photographing society events in my early 20s in NYC for a bizarre boss and have now been to Judge Judy's house, which honestly made it worth it.

There were no better celebrities in NYC, so I moved to San Francisco in 2025 with a 16-year layover in DC.

Photography remains the happening that brings me continual joy and anecdotes.

I really did get a perfectly good BFA Degree in Photography, but no one cares.

"I needed publicity photos for a solo cabaret show. Cassidy knew exactly what to do and walked me through the experience. My agent loved them, and I've worked with him for years since."
