Viv and Nance’s digitals are finally being shared. 🤍

We spent the evening wandering through Deià, meandering down quiet streets, soaking up the Mallorca views, and documenting little moments in between.

Later than evening for their wedding ceremony, they shared private vows overlooking the mountains as the sun slipped below the horizon. Just the two of them, Jess officiating, and the documentation team. The ceremony came to an end as a curtain of dark fell over the entire balcony, only illuminated by candles. It was pure magic.

Afterward, we were welcomed to join them for one of the most memorable meals I’ve ever had - prepared by a private chef, presented exquisitely (photos to come), and reminisced over the incredible week we had shared together. To be welcomed, like family, by V + N - who had started as strangers before this journey began - will never ever be forgotten. I truly don’t have the right words to describe their love and generosity towards us and everyone around them.

I will forever feel incredibly honored that these two trusted us to travel across the world to document this chapter of their lives. This gallery is only the beginning - there are still so many stories from our weeklong adventure through Spain that I can’t wait to share. ✨🇪🇸🤍

Thank you to the people who marched when marching came with consequences.

Thank you to the people who spoke up when silence was safer.

Thank you to the people who built community when the world tried to isolate them.

Thank you to the people who loved openly when they were told not to.

Thank you to the people who cared for one another through grief, loss, and crisis.

Thank you to the people who organized, advocated, educated, protested, and persisted.

Thank you to the people whose names we know.

And thank you to the countless people whose names we don’t.

Thank you to our q***r elders who imagined a better future long before they could see it.

Because of you, we get to celebrate.

Because of you, we get to gather.

Because of you, we get to be seen.

Because of you, we get to keep building a world that’s even better for the generations that come next.

Happy Pride Eve. 🌈

Working on this campaign with The Q***r Trans Project was such an honor.

These photos celebrate trans joy, community, and the life-changing reality of accessible gender affirming care, featuring some of the products they provide for free worldwide through their drops: binders, packers, gaffs, breast forms, tape, and more.

Every product drop from QTP is met with overwhelming need and support, famously “selling out” within seconds each time. Right now, they’re working toward raising 30k for their next drop so they can continue getting affirming products into the hands of people who need them most.

If you’re able, please consider donating to support their mission. Gender affirming care saves lives.

So grateful to have been trusted with documenting this project and the joy, tenderness, confidence, and power within this community. Hugest thank you to + for working tirelessly to make the world a better and more loving place.

I’ve never felt cooler or more like myself in a photo until .culture created this multimedia collage - I’m truly obsessed.

She saw me in a way that felt so unique and creative, then built something that somehow feels even more like me. She had the vision, I just sat for a picture and she ran with it.

She’s currently running minis for collage portraits on her page and I can’t recommend it enough. Working with artists like her is such a gift - we all deserve to be held in someone else’s creative vision and feel completely at home in it.

I rarely post photos of myself, because I prefer to focus on the beautiful humans I capture. Let this be y’all’s reminder to get in front of the camera when you can. It’s such a worthy push and is something I’m always grateful for afterwards. 🩵

Summer sunrise sessions in Florida just hit different 🌞

I always prefer a sunrise to a sunset on the east coast - before it gets unbearably hot, before the beaches are packed, before everyone’s awake - you feel like you’re waking up with the earth. The sun pops over the horizon only in the mornings, and it creates this gorgeous anticipation. Once it starts its’ rising, its soft golden light and warm air is the prettiest way to start a morning.

M + E had the right idea - running around in the magic, enjoying the sand in their toes and the breeze in their hair. Do something you truly enjoy, and the photos will be as dreamy as a romantic movie. ✨

Something exciting is coming!! 🌈

I was selected to be part of “The Reach of Light”, a group exhibition in South Florida this June alongside an insanely talented group of LGBTQIA+ artists: Josh Aronson, Ricky Cohete, Juicy Love Dion, David Gary Lloyd, and Michael Zimmerer (tagged below - check out their work immediately!!)

The show explores q***r identity, spirituality, visibility, devotion, and belonging through photography and visual installation, transforming a historic church space into a gallery centered around dialogue, empathy, and community during Pride Month.

A lot of my work has always lived somewhere between intimacy, q***r connection, tenderness, memory, grief, and love, so being included in this conversation alongside these artists feels really special. Especially here in Florida, where q***r art and visibility continue to matter so much.

Miami, I cannot wait to see you soon. ✨ HUGE thank you to for seeing value in my work and creating something so importantly beautiful. 🫶🏼

Q***rness shapes who we are before we even have words for it.

What a gift it is to love ourselves wholly and apologetically.

What a gift it is to know ourselves inside and out.

Q***rness is our deeply rooted strength.

This weeks’ musings on intrinsic belonging ^
