🚨EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY🚨
I will no longer be posting identifiable images of children on my photography page, signed release or not.

The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals just ruled that privately possessing AI-generated CSAM depicting “fictional” children can be constitutionally protected when it stays within the home.

That is enough for me to say I will not be a part of the problem. If our government and laws aren’t going to adequately protect children from what AI can do with their images, then I feel a responsibility to do my part to protect them.

I always want to give my honest attempt at living on the correct side of history.

The safety of children and my clients will always come before my business.

Alex has made significant progress as a photographer. You can view his latest work on his SD card, which contains all the shoots he's been working on.

Alex did amazing today. I don’t have a card reader for his SD card but his photos are just great.

I’ve never been to Topsmead and this was a good scouting trip. The wonderful people we met shared how beautiful it is come spring.

Anyone interested in a Private Photo Shoot at Topsmead State Park, book your session with me as soon as you can, Sundays only.
