Hi! I’m Payton, a college student working to turn my hobby into a career.

I’ve spent the last four years honing my craft in photography and film. During this time, I’ve had the privilege of working with incredible people, from couples sharing the most important days of their lives to individuals with unique stories.

In 2024, I had the opportunity to work as an editor on the feature documentary Fedelta: Soldiers. Prisoners., a project that deepened my love for visual storytelling. This experience gave me a chance to blend my skills in film and photography, balancing the technical aspects with the creative flow that brings each frame to life.

My goal as a visual storyteller is to create images that feel real and capture the genuine emotions of each moment. While working as a freelance creative, I’m currently pursuing a degree in Cinema & Photography at Robert Morris University.
