Bio -
Hi, I'm Ian!
Born and raised in Salt Lake City, I discovered a love of photography at a young age. With a 1970's Olympus SLR passed down from my dad, I experimented with analog photography while exploring Utah's exquisite landscapes.
During college in Portland, Oregon, I assisted in many of the city's top photo studios. I honed my technical knowledge by working with talented crews on commercial productions for Nike, Brooks, Columbia, and more.
After working as a house photographer at a social media agency in Portland, I moved to Los Angeles in 2017 where I freelanced on every project I could fit into my schedule. My creative collaborations ranged from athletes, musicians and touring bands, short films, visual artists, and local businesses, all while being a first-call assistant for photographers including Ruven Afanador, Michael Grecco, and Stan Evans.
Dedicated, hardworking, and passionate about what I do, I throw myself wholeheartedly at whatever is in front of me. Working with other creative and inspiring people is what brings me the most fulfillment in my journey.
