Meet The Photographer

I'm Pete, a Los Angeles-based photographer driven to capture the energy, emotion, and unspoken stories that unfold in life’s most meaningful moments.

Portrait photography, for me, is mostly about connection. It’s not about stiff poses or chasing some idea of “perfect.” It’s about catching you in your element. Real, relaxed, and fully yourself.

Learn more about my approach to photography and how we can work together to create something awesome.

“ Pete isn’t just a photographer; he’s a true artist who captures special moments with skill and care.”
— Kelvin F
