It feels really good to be saying #Year37 It’s always love. This next turn around the sun is going to be special. Thank you @buddy_isreal for the portrait

Thank you to @buddy_isreal and @samshotit.rentals for blessing me with a portrait that makes my mama proud :) And shoutout to @arthousefilmlab & @margaretjonesstudios for opening up their space to the community jacket by @peacenlovetribe__

36yrs around the sun and I’m riding within my purpose. I’m thankful for every interaction and love those who continue to lead with intention and the community that’s growing with me. Here’s to being 21 for the fifteenth time. Thank you for all the messages and well wishes :)

It’s not goodbye…it’s see ya later If y’all need an extra hand on your camera team, I’m available to support and collaborate, and to bring the vibes. I’m a ready 2nd AC, 1st AC, and Cam Op…and secretly a trained actor and writer pursuing a life as a filmmaker. We the new wave! Fxck the industry for leaving us and we will build our table in the world we want to see. … I had been feeling lost the past few weeks from a personal and work life perspective and lord knows my spirit has been tested. Figuring out how to say this… I came to Los Angeles a little more than 7 years ago, and when I came I arrived with community. Yet my dream felt so far out of reach until 2022. That was when I was hired as a driver at Becine. It came at a time when my community I arrived with, had began to move across all parts of the country. Within two years I’ve not only found a new community with so many beautiful loving people but also felt that my dreams were so much closer. Quickly becoming the Lead Prep Technician and Inventory Manager…opening up cameras and doors. I’m deeply saddened to be parting ways with Becine yet so excited for what’s in front of me. I can’t wait to be working besides so many of my peers who I’ve encountered and grown with. Y’all best believe that that smile on my face will always be present. Leading with love and trusting in God. The Marathon Continues 🏁 #filmmaker #camera

Happy Birthday to my momma!!! :-) She’s a warrior, survivor, nurturer, teacher, amazing cook, above all else a wonderful Mother. There aren’t enough words to describe the influence she’s had on me to be the person I am today. Happy 21st mom!!!!

I’ve been going through something. The only certain thing in life is how you decide to show up for yourself everyday. If you are struggling with anything don’t hold that in. Let that sh*t out. Express yourself freely and share with the world your wildest desires and then put in the work to make that dream a reality. _________________________________ Poetry is my form of expression 1st : One of a series of four taken by me. 2nd: Poem “I See You (Work in Progress)” 3rd: One of a series of four taken by me. 4th: Poem “Glimpse of Us” 5th: One of a series of four taken by me. 6th: Two part poem “Can’t Let Go/Can’t Have” 7th: Evening Glow Photo 8th: Poem “I Wish I Knew What You Wanted…Cuz I’m Down Bad 9th: One of a series of four taken by me.

Karemy Wedding Photo Series : I am feeling very fortunate to have celebrated @karaquinnwardtobin and @jeremy.leung28 ‘s beautiful wedding with so many wonderful and amazing people. Who knew a tropical destination wedding would be filled with so much love and laughter that I will always cherish dearly. Each day was filled with adventure surrounded by friends both new and old. I really mean this when I say, I feel blessed, refreshed, and more determined to seize all that life has to offer. And the funniest/strangest part of it all, I came back two pounds lighter 🤣 so I guess miracles can happen when the stars align. #karemy #wedding #domincanrepublic #love

When in paradise, I guess.

I could get used to this :-) 📸: @sabrinadahlmann #domincanrepublic #wedding #karemy
