A Moment with History
There are encounters in this life that burn themselves into our memory, not as mere instances, but as affirmations of purpose. I stood within the heart of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, serving as creative director for Marissa Sams Events, capturing the 25th anniversary of Urban Alliance. That evening, the halls hummed with a quiet reverence, for we knew we were bearing witness to a chapter in history’s long, winding narrative.
When President Barack Obama took the podium, each word settled into the air like a note of a grand, unending symphony. It was not just another high-profile event—this was the presence of a man whose very story had altered the course of nations. In that charged atmosphere, I raised my camera, steady and deliberate, driven not by spectacle but by purpose. To photograph a figure I have long held as a hero was to understand that I was no longer merely documenting an occasion—I was preserving a truth that future generations might hold in their hands.
Later that night, after the lights had dimmed and the hush of aftermath settled in, I saw one of my images gracing his own Instagram post. In that instant, the choice I had made to devote myself entirely to the craft, to trust my vision and embrace my calling, felt as though it had always been written. It was a quiet assurance that my work, done with integrity and honor, could speak across time and distance, granting me a seat at the table of history—both as witness and artist.
To every discerning eye considering whom to entrust with capturing the essence of your most significant moments: know that I approach each engagement as if destiny itself had set it in motion. I bring my full self—my respect, my skill, my reverence—to ensure that the images we create together are not merely documentation, but living testament to your story.
President Barack Obama
Keynote address for Urban Alliance 25 year celebration at the African American Museum. It was an honor and pleasure to make a portrait of a man that has so impacted my life, the way I witness the world and at the end of the day I can always tell my son that when he was born we had a black president with more swagger than the world….
To photograph Barack Obama in the African American Museum was surreal because when I was my sons age (6) the idea of either was far from a reality.
Photography and Story Telling
Photography is so much more than captured imagery, it is art. The art of designing a set, the art of interaction with a model (a subject), and the art of our storytelling. These are paramount in my artistic process and the reason I love photography. The art of photography is my art and it allows me to understand the world from intentional points of view.

Current Jiveshot Personal Project - No Middle
No Middle
A project about commonalities…
My question to the subject is simple….
”It literally can be anything... what’s not up for a debate in your eyes?”
It’s one side or the other. This isn’t about black and white or about red / blue. It is because everyone has a story. Has a basis of self. I want to collect stories that represent who we are at this moment. A story that will reflect a collection of our individual struggles, celebrations, convictions, passions and purpose. Our struggles is a collective one, we are only able to achieve but so much by ourselves.
The idea is to marry art and the message. The high key black and white is beyond simple. Because of it’s stark contrast I want to pair it with the notion that in life we face many of the same things in many different ways. That we all have something that is without question, that what drives us is what ties us together.
A Times Square Story
As a content creator travel is extra fun. Creating stories and watching people will never get old. I loved the time I got to spend in New York City’s Times Square last year. I hit the streets as soon as the family went to bed. Check out the blog for some picture stories or hit the link for the Times Square After A Pandemic and see some more images from the trip.
