ABOUT //

I am a photographer, a graphic designer, & web designer. Think of this skillset as the Swiss Army knife of digital media. Sometimes I use all the skills and tools I have to help a client with a project (such as branding, website development and print design) and sometimes I apply "just" one of those skills (such as when snapping beautiful family pictures at the beach).

TEN FAST FACTS

I love lifting weights and pushing my limits through fitness challenges. I'm a certified CrossFit and group exercise coach and when I'm not snapping pictures or building a website, you can usually find me sweating with Dusty at Crossfit Malibu
I started freelancing in 2011 because I wanted to do something different every day. Years later, that is still true and I love every second of it. If you're reading this and you're a budding freelancer, PLEASE shoot me an email or a text any time you have questions. The thing I love almost as much as doing what I love every day is helping others do the same.
During COVID I became obsessed with plants and acquired over 40 new house plants during the course of the lockdown year. Reorganizing my house to accommodate for so many new green inhabitants took many hours.
Goal-setting is a practice that helped me grow and succeed as a freelancer. Sharing about goal-setting and teaching the method to others is a passion project of mine. In my spare time I coach individuals and corporate clients in how to set and work toward meaningful and motivating goals. You can learn more about the project over at Values, Vision, and Goals >>
I am a double Pepperdine grad (BA 2010 & MA 2018) and a proud wave for life.
I find great purpose in taking action to relieve suffering and improve the world. To that end, I give back 20% of every project fee to relief efforts, charities, and nonprofit organizations such as Made in the Streets.
I'm a little grungy and I'm happiest in the backcountry with a heavy pack strapped to my shoulders, or boondocking on the road with Dusty.
My number one strength is positivity, I'm super energetic and outgoing, and I laugh a lot. I hate going to sleep. (which is probably why I need yoga...)
Yoga and mindfulness are a very important part of my life. I have practiced yoga since I was 18, and been teaching since I was 25.
I am on a minimalist journey. I am always in pursuit of less stuff, less clutter, less static, and less distraction.

People ask me all the time what my favorite type of project is. My answer is always the same: the last one I did >>

Proof that I love what I do!

Me and my wife are from Utah, but we got married in Malibu, CA, so we needed a photographer to shoot our wedding. Cecily was one of the best photographers I have ever shot with... and I'm a photographer. She has a great personality and she's very creative with her work. She was very pleasant to work with and accommodated our needs. Everyone in the family loved having her around and everyone absolutely loved her work. I highly recommend Cecily for any photo needs you have - she will do an amazing job! More reviews >>
