Sean's photography started with uni toast at Saison. Since capturing the Santa Barbara-sourced sensual treat, Sean has expanded to capturing light in more exotic forms, from roaring snow leopards in the freezing Alaskan landscape to ikura nigiri on modern ceramic plates, an homage to his photography roots capturing fine cuisine. While Sean is familiar with long-exposure landscape shots, as well as night photography, Sean is most excited by capturing moving subjects while adhering to core artistic principles including leading lines, negative space, unique foreground framing, and other techniques that factor into beautiful composition. Sean strives to constantly explore further artistic pursuits, staying intellectually curious, and challenging himself not to be confined to one discipline. Sean and his works have been featured in Esquire, Tatler, Mantle Magazine, Art Plus Magazine, and international art fairs and exhibitions in the USA and in Asia.

While at USC, Sean studied under Oscar-producing documentarian Doug Blush and Hollywood movie-maker Daniel Noah, founder of Spectrevision.
