I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA and now live in Medellín, Colombia. Colombia has a rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and some of the kindest people on the planet. Living in Medellín also offers easy access to many other locations in South and Central America.
My first camera was a hand me down that my mother had been using, an old Kodak Instamatic with a flash cube. After driving my parents nuts about developing the film, I was given a Polaroid Instant camera for Christmas the following year.
After 13 years in the corporate world, tired of the 80 hour weeks, I decided to chase a family and childhood passion; photography. Having been cast in some smaller acting roles, I had an "in" with actors and began shooting headshots in 2013.
With no real academic background in Fine Art, I credit an Indiana University Photography Professor and my uncle for feeding and fueling my passion and knowledge about photography, photographers, and technique.

What Del Shores wrote about me:
Over the years, I've had the privilege to shoot with some amazing photographers. I love my most recent shoot with Jason Grindle. Jason is also an actor and he understands how to direct you into poses that communicate! If you need new headshots, I highly recommend booking with Jason.
