Model and Photographer

For me, photography, (and therefore modeling) and poetry is the part of the dream you remember, whilst reality is merely the dream.

My art isn’t about elevation, but cataclysms. I hope only to spawn thought and reflection- all private reactions to the visual and written forms of my work, in order to catalyze the viewer’s innate creative self. Through these private moments, awakenings and revelations of the viewer, I truly hope that they can then move to continue the cycle of inspired freedom of self. Photography and writing in combination is so engaging to me; the combination between the “left brain” and the “right brain” keeps me on my toes and consistently challenged, even though some of my projects are solely one or the other.

Specific to travel or architectural photography-writing, the beauty of the land captures my heart, and the ability to stand outside of the human existence as merely an observer to that which is almost obsolete to most eyes, is what drives my perspective as a photographer and a writer. Through my own introspections and documentations I hope to create a span of imagery and writing to influence even the most closed of hearts to escape their own neighborhoods and immerse themselves in light and land.

The modeling and conceptual photography that has spawned from years in front of the camera are the existence of this Vie Boheme, my true joie de vivre, offering endless inspiration for each other. Sometimes I want to physically tell the story, and sometimes I just want to be the puppeteer….

Yes! I want to be featured!
