I’ve been grappling with my image lately, perhaps like some of you. As the years fly by, our lives, faces, and bodies change. Many of us can’t help but compare ourselves to versions from the past that are now just memories. Self portraiture has always lent me a sort of therapeutic shelter when I can feel change ushering me forward. It’s something I’ve been investing in since I was a young teen. After each portrait, it shocks me just how fast time flys. We all quickly metamorphose and no longer reflect our younger selves.

Self portraiture has always played a pivotal role in me honing my skills and testing different concepts and lighting. Most importantly though, it serves to honor my younger self, no matter how uncomfortable or content, broken or whole. I feel every person and each chapter deserves to be seen and honored in this way.

I wish to honor each person I photograph, to bare witness to their individual identity and chapters of personal growth. I strive for this.

The crisp December air saturates my lungs as a friend draws smiling faces in the dust on a stranger's car window. We've been holding hope like the head of a newborn these last few sunrises and sunsets. Their exhaled smoke joins my inhale as I take a drag. I hate ci******es. May I have another?

We look to the sky at 11:59 and decide to put time away in our pockets, listening for the sounds of January. Twelve o'clock arrives with the shriek of gunpowder revolving through the sky. We listen intently as neighbors squeal, noticing a commercial airliner crossing paths with the moon. I never imagined this turbulence could feel so much like standing still.

Words and images by me.
All of it inspired by .mb 💛

Had the opportunity to have my good pal Carmine in the studio before they made their move to Portland. This human right here is one of my favorite humans, and it was such a refreshing experience to experiment and create with them. 💕
