WHY URBAN LUMI?

Why Urban? Because thanks to a tick bite, I’m basically a mutant…thanks, Alpha-gal syndrome. You won’t find me frolicking in fields or tree lines dodging ticks. Hard pass.

But honestly? The city is where the magic happens. Concrete, glass, and neon lights set the perfect backdrop for brands ready to shine…clean, architectural lines and rich, urban vibes.

Whether we’re capturing content at your place of business, city streets, or creating magic in my quirky, allergen-friendly studio tucked in the heart of College Hill, you’re getting a custom experience designed to be safe, creative, and completely you.

And Lumi? It’s all about the light, baby! Light isn’t just something I chase—it’s something I bend, shape, and manipulate to tell your story. I understand light theory like a scientist and use every kind—natural, ambient, artificial—to craft rich, cinematic scenes.

Add in prisms, reflections, and the glow of neon, and suddenly your brand isn’t just visible—it’s sparkly, dimensional, and dripping with personality-making it unforgettable.

This is where strategic business brains meet cinematic visuals and damn good storytelling.

Welcome to Urban Lumi.

But here’s the kicker—I’m not just a photographer. With a business degree, over 14 years behind the camera, and a career in higher education as an instructor and instructional designer, I bring real business strategy to the table. I’ve run multiple businesses—including a small chain of opticals back in the day.

So trust me when I say—I know how to build a brand that doesn’t just look good, it actually works.
