I am a native of Luling, LA and recently moved here from Hattiesburg, MS.  I have been married to my beautiful bride, Aimee for 5 ½ years and we have been blessed with two precious girls. We are ecstatic to be back in Louisiana and closer to our family and friends. We have already met many of our neighbors in Lakewood Heights and have been kindly welcomed. We feel we have made a great decision and are happy to call it home.

I decided to open my photography business, Focused on U Photography, LLC which allowed me more time doing two things I am passionate about…being a Dad and photography. I decided to do this after meeting my daughter for the first time and falling head over heels about her. I knew it was time for a career change that allowed me an opportunity to spend more time with those I love. I never dreamed of opening my own business, but it was the perfect solution. This wonderful choice has allowed me to raise my two girls during the day and pursue my passion as a photographer on the evenings and weekends. I consider myself one of the luckiest guys around.

Photography was instilled in my heart at a young age by my father. I watched his excitement for capturing timeless images and I always admired his creativity. I followed his footsteps and joined the military after graduating high school and was a photographer/videographer at the Naval Air Station for 7 years. My two little girls inspire me everyday and they have taught me to cherish the small things in life. I love photography because it is the beauty of life, captured. Simplicity, expression, emotion, relationships and love are conveyed in my portraits. I love to capture natural and creative images with the hopes of providing a glimpse into the hearts of the individuals and families I photograph. I strive for enduring and everlasting portraits my clients will treasure forever. I believe my passion and love for what I do shows in my work and my style.
