Interview with Spottin Style
Spottin Style, a London based fashion company, interviewed me about photographing street style. It was great to reflect on the photos I’ve shot with strangers in various cities the past couple years! How do you make people smile? Often passing someone in the street and requesting to photograph them is enough to make them smile. […]

Pink Is The New Black
Pink is the new black because it’s summer and we’re going for lighter hues. I just died my hair pink to change it up. What do you think? My hair was light pink on the ends before I left Madrid. I had it professionally dyed and then the pink faded out, which I found out […]

Florida Norte
I came across this sign while shooting in Madrid. The sign is in the background of the first photo “Florida Norte”. I was tempted to photo shop it out because it’s not all that visually pleasing but I think it’s allegorical (and north is definitely better than things going south haha). Miami I’m coming for […]

A friend was visiting me and we attended the panel discussions, gallery exhibitions, artist talks, and other events together. It was nice to see her and have some more creative energy around the […]

A Strange State of Affairs…
It has been a strange state of affairs the last couple of weeks. I’ve been job searching and going back and forth between Chicago and Iowa. More than half of my belongings remain in Iowa in my mom’s basement. My photographs, paintings, and art supplies are all there so I am in this transitory […]

There’s a Rift to the Dream World
I’ve been staying with my Father for a few months after graduating college. I’m preparing to go to Spain and live for a few months so this is a nice place to be during this transition period from Iowa to Spain. I photographed at a pond near his house where the sun was beginning to […]
