I played around with practical effects.

No filters. No special lenses. No tools or artificial effects in post-processing. Just plexiglass, soap, water, movement, and light.

I try to be intentional with images, what they show and what they hold. Water can serve many symbolisms. Some may see it literally, while others may connect it to emotion, memory, pressure, grief, or transformation. The idea of “the weight of the water” stayed with me throughout the process.

I’ve wanted to experiment with this for a while. Purposely shooting out of focus is difficult. Working in a confined space with limited natural light added another layer of challenge, but I enjoyed letting the imperfections become part of the image itself.

Shot with a fixed 50mm lens…forever my favorite.

Suspended Voices: A Reflection on the Messy Beauty of the “In-Between” 🌬️🥀

I’ve sat on this video for about eight months. To be honest, as a professional photographer, I struggled with the urge to keep it hidden. Moving pictures is a medium I am still very much a stranger to. It isn’t my forte, and without the professional help I had originally hoped for, I felt a sense of hesitation. I saw only the technical gaps.
But the longer I sit with these frames, the more I realize that perfection was never the point.
When I made this last September and finalized it in October, I was walking through a season that felt like a whirlwind. I was navigating heavy life transitions, pouring myself into PhD applications, and preparing to walk across a stage. I was doing the best I could with what I had and what I knew at the time.
Now, looking back with fresh eyes, I’m proud of this. Not because the filming is “perfect,” but because the feeling is real.
In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, I’m finally sharing Suspended Voices. It’s an exploration of the many faces of mental health and the radical beauty that art can offer when we use it as a safe space for healing. For me, the journey has always been a mosaic: it’s the quiet strength of medication, the hard work of therapy, and the visceral, somatic release of the aerial hoop and the earth beneath my feet.
This project served as the headfront of my MAE thesis and is the foundation for the doctoral studies I’ll be continuing this fall. It’s a reminder that we don’t have to be “experts” in a medium for it to save us. We just have to be willing to show up.
If you’d like to dive deeper into the subject and the heart behind these images, my full thesis is available to download and read at the link in my bio. 📖✨

Here is to the “in-between” seasons, to the new mediums that challenge us, and to the courage it takes to remain suspended.

Was talking to some potential clients and I was digging into some old shots and examples of family, children and fur babies…

Here’s a session I did featuring my cousin and his beautiful family. I loved everything about this…sweet brothers and their new baby sister and of course my cousin and his gorgeous wife. ❤️
