That sleeps in me;
All day I feel its soft, feathery turnings, its malignity." - Sylvia Plath

Some more color! I love this edit from a shoot I did a few years ago.

I’d love to hear the individual narratives you create in your head when you see this image. How’s this image make you feel? Please share!

Over the last few weeks I’ve been bitten by the COLOR bug. I feel like I’m cheating on myself. Black and white photography feels like home. Color feels like a vacation. I think I’m ready for a vacation.

East Jesus / Slab City

One of my favorite places to photograph and explore. I will definitely find a way to get back there in 2024.

In a world where beliefs diverge like currents, do we find solace in faith or embrace the uncharted realms of doubt?
A symphony of wings echoes the choices we make, each feather a question, each wire a path.

“HIGH VOLTAGE” / 2016.

Amidst the worn threads of belief and disbelief, she sits in the quiet contemplation of contrasts. In the shadows of beliefs, where do we find solace, and what mysteries unfold when the sacred and the sensual converge?
