I have the first photo on my wall - it’s one of my favorites from my MM project! :)

You can actually view the full project on my blog. Link is in bio. The MM project took 5 months to conceptualize and finish. Enjoy!

I wanted to pull some images from my archives that I felt like fit for the MM project. The various images I plan on posting either got lost in the mix of the various projects/ styles I was focusing on in previous years, or I never posted them for one reason or another. Most of the time it was because I was being self critical.

With that said however, my inner critic has taken a long time to silence.

Now instead of thinking, “Is this good enough? Will people like this? Does this make me a good videographer / photographer?”

I have now decided to exclusively incorporate this thinking over the past 10 months :

“What am I trying to say with what I create?”

“How do I incorporate my own voice into this project? What can I do to create an authentic representation of who I am as an artist, versus what is popular right now?”

There were many periods of time in the past where I practiced these principles, but social media has a way of warping your own self worth and self expression.

Basically, I’ve shifted my relationship with art over the past year. When I’m feeling bad about my work, instead of chasing validation, I just create. Or I look through old work that I deemed “not good enough” originally, and I reevaluate it with these questions in mind. In the end, I’ve decided that my work may not be everyone’s cup of tea all the time, but at least I’m being true to myself.

Evolving as an artist is always a good feeling.

Also, side note, social media breaks are good. Instead of doom scrolling other people’s work, i I focus on finding inspiration elsewhere.

For me personally, I’m extremely influenced by movies and my own personal experiences. I also love telling stories. Once you figure out your voice - you’ll be more at peace with what you create!

Without further ado, here is a set that I took in 2021.

Breaking up the reel train with some old fashioned photos. is a stunner - and I love the way the film looks. It’s very 1970s which is what I was going for. 🙃

I’m almost done with my MM project (I’ll be showing you some of my fav photographs from this project as I wrap it up over the next couple weeks!)

The casting for my “Obscure Goddesses of the World” series is almost done - and thank you to everyone that applied. I was extremely grateful for the overwhelming response to the casting. If I could photograph everyone I would!

I’m still looking for models with Native American descent, and someone with Asian heritage. If you fit this description (or know someone that does) please message me! That would be extremely helpful.

Thank you for all your support. :)

I’m still in the middle of my MANIC/MELANCHOLIC era, but I’m casting for my next project - “Obscure Goddesses of the World”. It’s an idea that’s been in my brain for awhile, so I’m excited to work on it this year.

The casting call is for anyone - all are welcome. Application is in bio. 🌙
