I entered an art competition for a cause that genuinely matters to me. YOU CAN VOTE FOR ME DAILY (🔗 in bio) and I’d deeply appreciate your support. You can share and vote for free or donate.

holds a real place in my heart & history, and winning would let me put resources behind programs I actually believe in, like and Boys to Men Mentoring.

This is the first time I’m sharing these pieces publicly.
A limited selection of drawings from a mystic collection that has been moving through me for 3 years. Each one a prayer. Not metaphorically. Literally.

Miracles have moved through the making of them. For me and for people who asked me to channel a piece for them. Fertility. Love. Clarity. Peace. Things that don’t “make sense” by matrix standards, but show up anyway. I learned the power of these pieces the hard way, fast, and had to become more intentional with each piece. Be careful what you wish for, right? I’m still in a little shock and I’m excited to share more.

These pieces carry something sacred for me. I’ll leave it at that.

I just published a letter on my substack to any and all men who will listen. From a man who won’t let himself off the hook. This piece dives into the background, facts, and solutions from the recent press around r**e culture.

Inspired by navigating this with my partner , my men’s work lens and my personal experience - the good, the bad and the ugly.

I strongly urge you to read this one & send it to one or many men. This one is going to take ALL OF US. I wrote this for all men, deep in the work to not at all.

I don’t know who needs this today so sharing something vulnerable….

It’s been a wild year with some MAJOR changes, and I’m just starting to settle into sharing more of this journey. If you’ve ever felt alone, searching for love, in the world this piece is for you. Check out the full piece on my Substack ❤️

“How many times have I prayed
for the kind of love that stays?

Too many to count
the number slipped past infinity long ago.

There was always that ache in my bones,
that whisper from somewhere deep….
calling me.

Beckoning me, to a place I hadn’t yet known.
Sometimes a murmur, sometimes a roar,
but always there.

I looked high and low, near and far,
chasing the horizon for “the one,”
until at last I found peace
in the simplicity of solitude.

And then, without warning,
a familiar knock at the door.

Her name was Joy.
I’d seen her before,
but never like this.

Lost in that timeless space,
the world fell away.
And for the first time in a long time,
I rested…safe, seen,
and finally unafraid to love again.”

Ready to be seen in your brightest light?

With over 20 years of experience facilitating personal growth & photographing world-class artists, brands, and visionaries, I bring a unique blend of creative direction, visual storytelling, and transformational coaching to every shoot.

From global brands to spiritual leaders, my lens has always been drawn to the same thing: the essence of light.

Because when your light is reflected back to you honestly, something awakens. You remember who you are. You remember what you’re here to share. Transformational photography is where creativity meets consciousness, and where your story becomes a mirror for your purpose.

Whether you’re a brand, artist, coach, musician, healer, or performer, this is about bringing your vision to life in a way that feels real and resonant. This is what conscious branding is. No more soul sucking shoots and dreading creating content.

Together, we’ll create art that mirrors your essence and amplifies your voice so that the world feels your truth before you ever speak it.

Let’s capture your magic. Let’s amplify your light.

See The World Through My Eyes 👁️📸

I’ve spent the last 20 years exploring the world through the lens - From global brand campaigns to sacred indigenous peace gatherings, my camera became a portal to the unseen, unspeakable soul & essence beneath the surface.

Every frame taught me something different about life.
I’ve photographed CEOs and medicine men, models and mystics, dancers and visionaries. Every time, I saw the same thing: magic waiting to be unleashed.
What began through the lens has evolved into something much larger: transformational spaces where people remember who they are.

From the camera to the dance floor, from Adidas to Shamanism, from the studio to the sweat lodge, the mission remains the same: To help people see the world, and themselves, with depth, divinity, and radical compassion... Let’s unleash our essence and dance our truth into being.

“I Choose Love:

Can you feel it?
That spine-tingling rush of hope.
That fierce, heart-born fire that rises when people’s homes, rights, and way of life are threatened.

Today, millions of people united in with a unified message.
There will be “NO KINGS” in America.
Not now. Not ever…”

In today’s world, both men and women are navigating a complex landscape of relationships. The feminine, with its intuitive, nurturing, and creative nature, is rising, but it often clashes with societal expectations that have conditioned us to suppress these energies. At the same time, men are facing the challenge of redefining masculinity—learning how to hold space for vulnerability and emotional expression without losing their strength.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​These shifts can create tension in relationships, where old patterns no longer fit. Both men and women are being called to step into a new way of being—one where authenticity, healthy communication, and mutual respect lead the way. It’s time to honor the power of the feminine and support the rise of healthy masculinity, because together, we can create something TRULY beautiful.

In order to this we must each realize the distorted lenses that we look through everyday and learn to humble ourselves. This is one of the greatest challenges I believe we face in modern relationships. Letting go of the pain created on both sides of the gender divide is something I don't have an answer for, but I'm willing to dance with it and keep going to heal my own s**t so that I can be a better man.

What are your thoughts on this?

“The greatest gift we can give each other in relationships is space and compassion—space to be ourselves, to grow, and to heal and compassion for what the other person is going through.” - Daryl Henderson

“The world will be saved by the western woman.” – Dalai Lama​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Have you noticed there’s a global shift happening?

The rise of the feminine is upon us. Women are stepping into their power, reclaiming their voices, and redefining what it means to lead with strength and grace.

At it's best this isn’t about overpowering; it’s about balance.

It’s about honoring intuition, creativity, and the ability to nurture and lead in a world that needs healing.

This is where we as men must step. In order for this journey to become a reality, we must strive to redefine our own masculinity.

It's time for a healthy masculine archetype to rise.

With that said, we are still imperfect, with all of our flaws and faults. Yet, this is what makes us great. When we can accept our shadows and acknowledge where we've been wrong, forgive the wrong that's been done to us, and choose find a better way then there's a possibility for something new.

Together, in partnership, we create a new world—one of respect, balance, and love.

"The Dalai Lama says that the world will be saved by Western women. Not any women, perhaps not all women, but Burning Women. Women who have stepped out of silence and into the fullness of their power. Angry women who love the world and her creatures too much to let it be destroyed so thoughtlessly for a moment longer."

Life doesn’t always go according to plan, but maybe that’s a good thing. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The universe is always course correcting FOR us, even when it looks like everything is going "t**s up" as the British like to say.

Sometimes we think something is going to magical and easy because things have been smooth for a while and we just keep expecting things to be easy. That's the way the Law of Attraction works....right?

Well, yes...and no. Who's to say that loosing your job, partner, or home aren't the best thing that ever happened. I've experienced all three of those in recent years and whilst it's been heartbreaking at times, I'm stronger and more resilient than ever.

AND....my life continues to be a magical adventure, as long as I continue to view it that way. As soon as I let the twists and turns grind me down, and they do sometimes, things get REALLY hard, and I want to quit.

Then I remember that life is a journey not a destination and pick myself up and keep going.

Sometimes, the detours end up being the most beautiful parts of the journey. Trust the process—even when you don’t understand it.

As Steve Jobs once said, “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward.”

So, if you’re feeling lost, just keep going. You’ll see how it all comes together in time.

I promise
