Denver Center Photographer
Being Denver Center Theater Company’s Photographer has been such an honor. It has given me so many amazing opportunities, but photographing The Color Purple last year and getting my photo on a billboard were definitely top life moments for me! This show was spectacular and so much fun to capture. I was really happy with my photos after I delivered this show but it’s incredibly affirming to see others think highly of my work as well. A lot of these photos got published in news outlets across Denver, which is always so exciting to see. Then, months later, I was driving down Speer and I saw it. I saw my favorite photo from The Color Purple, from the whole season, printed huge on the side of the performing arts complex! There’s not much that tops that thrill for me.
