The intersection of art and enterprise.
Most people separate photography into two worlds—expression and execution, story and scale, art and business. My work exists in the space where those worlds overlap.
400+
Corporate sessions delivered across enterprise environments.
4,000+
Clients photographed with consistency and continuity.
Systems
Calm image infrastructure for trust, clarity, and scale.
Stories
Editorial and documentary work rooted in culture and lived experience.
I partner with individuals, organizations, and institutions that have something meaningful to say. Sometimes that work is designed for enterprise environments—where clarity, trust, and continuity matter. Other times it becomes documentary and editorial storytelling, rooted in culture, humanity, and lived experience.
The philosophy is the same. The constraints are different.
Over the course of my career, I’ve been invited into many different rooms.
Each invitation carries weight.
For more than a decade, I’ve worked professionally across both enterprise and documentary spaces, delivering over 400 corporate sessions for 4,000+ clients, while maintaining a parallel practice rooted in long-form narrative and cultural documentation.
What connects all of this work is not status or scale—it’s presence.
My photography is not built for one type of person.
It’s built for the person standing in front of me.
Whether the setting is a boardroom, a studio, a home, or a street corner, the responsibility is the same: to see people clearly, to honor the trust of the moment, and to create images that feel grounded, intentional, and true.
One discipline sharpens the other.
The structure of enterprise work demands precision and restraint.
The freedom of documentary work preserves emotion, context, and truth.
Together, they inform how I show up—every time I’m invited into someone’s space.
Together, they form a single practice—one that treats photography not just as an image-making exercise, but as a way to build understanding, alignment, and memory.
This is where the art of photography and the business of photography meet.
And where stories are built with intention.
Enterprise & Corporate Work
Calm, standardized portraiture and event coverage for organizations that care about consistency, risk reduction, and operational clarity—built to scale across teams and timelines.
Event, Documentary & Editorial Stories
Cultural and Instututional Events, Long-form narrative and cultural documentation—grounded in humanity, context, and lived experience—crafted with intention and respect for the story.
Skylark — Jamaica
A feature-length documentary by Mignotae Kebede, releasing in 2026. The film follows Dr. Yanique Redwood as she leaves high-profile work in Washington, DC to confront the physical and emotional toll of racism — and pursue a radical path toward healing.
One of the things I love most about photography is where it can take you — across the country, across the world, and on the best days, into stories that truly matter. This project brought me to Jamaica for a three-day visual series in support of Skylark. From the mist-covered ridges of the Blue Mountains to the open light of Montego Bay, every location became part of the story itself. We followed the film through its landscapes, its people, and its emotional arc — capturing moments that feel both cinematic and deeply human. Everything the light touched, the camera captured. At the end of the trip we had a gallery of images for the team to use for post production materials. I grew up working in a movie theatre so shooting a movie poster was somthing I welcomed just as much as the Jamaica's weather.
Favorite Images from the Past Few Years
My work lives at the intersection of storytelling and craft — the point where a
photograph becomes more than a deliverable and starts carrying meaning, atmosphere, and identity.
Corporate marketing managers hire me for consistency, polish, and an enterprise-ready process. Brand leaders,
artists, actors, and everyday people hire me for the same reason — plus the creative direction that makes an image
feel undeniable.
Personal Branding
Executive presence, founder identity, and visual authority — built for web, press, and campaigns.
Editorial & Published Work
Commissioned and published across platforms — from CIO Magazine to national brand advertising for Nike, Spotify, and Plantronics.
Brand Building Visual Assets
Campaign-ready imagery that establishes tone, trust, and consistency across every touchpoint.
High-End Event Coverage & Production
Premium event storytelling with the pacing, detail, and discretion required at the highest levels.
Outside of corporate work, my camera has put me with past presidents and world leaders, on movie sets and fashion runways, at General Assembly summits, and in cozy family backyards. I’ve been commissioned to photograph Ambassators, Presidents, recording artists, my community, founders, and families building their legacy.
Below is a curated collection of my favorite images — editorial, commercial, portraits, landscapes, and lived moments — selected for the way they hold story, emotion, and presence.
