Hello, I’m Aaron. I’m an editorial and commercial photographer based in New Orleans, Louisiana. After spending the first 15 years of my career living abroad, I moved back to the south to be near family, and to engage in stories closer to home.  

I work around the world for some of the industry’s largest companies and publications, and my photographs have been shown in galleries in the US, Vietnam, and Malaysia. 

Outside of photography, I spend my time gardening, painting, and making pottery. I also take a lot of walks with my wife and our two wonderful dogs—Arlo and Maya. 

I’m a light packer and an easygoing travel partner. I’m available for assignments in New Orleans and beyond, and would love to hear from you.
