Over the last decade, I've built a cross-border practice in the Caribbean and Switzerland, specializing in natural-light photography, visual storytelling, and brand identity for weddings, portraits, and real estate. I lead creative direction and studio operations, delivering clear, timeless imagery and a high-touch client experience. I’m a native English speaker and Swiss B Permit holder.
