With @astridjohnsonn & @maxwellkazakoff
Thanks you two again, for such a fun shoot.
I’ve found really enjoying shooting 2 model compositions. So much mood and energy to capture. More dynamic, and more depth. Look forward to more of these 🎞️

In between shoots @subeanaa and I found a fun little nook with soft lighting to create a mood. Honestly, I feel some of my favorite shots are those unplanned, spontaneous. Wardrobe wasn’t planned, nor location, nor time of day. Guess that’s art. Can’t chase the unpredictable and unplanned. But you crave it.
Office space.
Such an interesting place. Productive but vacant. A daily gathering space, with no connection. Reduced to a number. Amongst many, but still alone.
Thx @westcoasttoasterr for the super fun impromptu creative shoot. Been wanting to do an office shoot for a long time. Glad we could make it happen together 👊🏼
The games we play.
Super fun shoot illustrating one’s stream of conscious. My initial inspo I used to create this concept’s mood board was the thought of power and isolation. I didn’t really know how I’d convey the message, but that’s what unfiltered mind dump came forth. Eventually I landed on using the game of chess to bring out a deeper message. I was laying in bed looking up at the ceiling, and remembered the show Queens Gambit, where she’d trip balls in bed and play imaginary chess on the ceiling with herself. That memory also inspired me to use a mattress haha.

Thanks you guys so much for being down to put this together with me. Such a fun day. Really enjoyed creating with y’all. I love how creativity and cameras bring people together.
Product goodies, for @opolis_optics 🥀
I miss the mountains. Having grown up in the PNW, snowboarding was a focal point in my life. It was a lifestyle. A release. Now being in LA, my priorities have changed. But the mountains and the cold are still apart of me. I feel it every morning when it’s cold, and mornings are my favorite. Crisp air that sharpens the mind, and centers me with focus. A reminder of where I’m from, and that that will never leave me.
A nostalgic moment thinking back on this shoot. Spontaneous trip to desert with @opolis_optics and company. Thx @kevandoyle_ for the full send. Very on-par with the brand 🏆
