Portraits with Dr. Hanan and Life Update!

March 20, 2025 in detroit portraits, dearborn portraits, portrait photographer, fujifilm photographer, fujifilm portraits

After over 10 years of working in a traditional setting, I’ve made the exciting decision to dive into freelancing full-time! It was a big choice, and honestly, a little scary, but I’m trusting my gut and going for it. Photography has always been my passion, especially telling stories through emotive imagery. The trust that clients place in me to capture their moments and tell their stories is one of the greatest compliments I could receive. I’m thrilled to pour my energy and focus into this new chapter and look forward to the adventures and opportunities that lie ahead.

All that said - I’m also so excited to share some recent work from a fun portrait session with Dr. Hanan Alhaddi at Detroit Perk, an incredible coffee shop and community hangout in Dearborn Heights. Hanan reached out to me needing new portraits for an upcoming book, speaking engagements, conferences, and additional images to help build her personal brand in consulting.

Hanan, thank you so much for trusting me to capture these images! It was a pleasure working with you, and I can't wait to see where your journey takes you.
