IM VOGUE FEATURED ⭐️
finance bro artist girl duo is elite !
On a chilly day during lunar new year, when ice still lined the streets, I followed Charlotte and Max through a delirious maze of courthouses and judges. At one point, we wondered if we would even get to see it through. Obstacle after obstacle eventually led through with persistance — and a tearful Charlotte emerged from the court hallway. I can’t believe it all worked out, but for Charlotte, things simply always do. The world around her echos this in a vibrato so distinct it’s unsettling.
Thank you
@charsocray and
@maxwelljwu for giving me the honor of watching this madness unfold, a cheeky union emerging from the chaos—
— I’ve spent almost a decade capturing love. I’ve never claimed to have it nailed down, the process has continued to sharpen me which keeps my heart for it alive. People ask how I started — I just say: IDK.
But I never stopped.
For a good 5 years, converse was my work uniform — I felt it was essential to remind people of my youth and also my power. And that my power wasn’t designer. My power was calloused, worn, and imperfect. Which is why this chaotic elopement would of course be my first vogue feature 🥹
I didn’t want to boast a “GIRL BOSS” mantra, or buy into the typical versions of success that are shoved down our throats. But we all dream of success, don’t we? I was intentional to define what that meant for me. I don’t photograph weddings with publications in mind. But ALAS — It is my absolute honor to be featured in Vogue, alongside friends from the art community who have changed my life. Thank you to
@shelbywax for bringing to life a part of my childhood dream.
Thank you to the world for rewarding spirit and passion over greed and elitism. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
