Sean is a professional photographer who runs his own photography and videography business & has traveled the world on assignments. He lives on the island of Maui, Hawaii where he has clearly devoted his attention and skills towards the art of photography.
He picked up a camera at the age of seven, inspired by talent he saw in Time Life & National Geographic Magazines. Sean literally started his career behind the camera as a child actor & model where a seed was planted, and from there, his passion grew.
Sean later achieved his B.A. in Fine Arts in 1996, Magna Cum Laude, with an emphasis in photography and cinematography. He finalized the last stages of his degree in Paris via University of South Florida.

Sean has worked as an FAA certified drone pilot, independent, dedicated photographer & videographer for over 20 years. His forte is people, product and publicity photography. He has photographed and worked abroad in 25+ plus countries where he has an eye for the surreal and visually rich moments; telling a story with his camera vs. a written dialogue.
