And with this, my photographic chronicle of the 2023 WGA and SAG strikes is finally complete. All photos from May 2nd through November 8th are now up on my gallery. Thank you all so, so much for your patience, kindness, and support. It was the most incredible experience of my life, and I am eternally grateful to have met such an amazing group of people. I hope you all like the photos. The next step is to work on a couple books, one for each strike. I’ll keep using the gallery for any WGA-related labor events that I attend, so keep an eye out for more updates. Link to gallery in bio.

I am *beyond* humbled. The WGA strike is over, but @colehaddonwashere was kind enough to put another piece together featuring my work, this time by an introduction by wonderful human being @davidagoodman1 .
I *sobbed* reading this, and my jaw fell to the floor seeing all the kind and generous words as I scrolled through the piece.
To Cole, David, everyone who contributed to this, and everyone who ever joined the picket lines: From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I will cherish this for the rest of my life.
I’m still working on photos, and I’ll keep updating the gallery as I make progress.

As late capitalism continues to decimate nearly everything and everyone but the rich, a historic labor movement unfolds. It’s been the honor of my life to be able to photograph and picket alongside such an amazing group of people. I’m humbled and extremely grateful to @colehaddonwashere for putting this piece together and asking me to write a few words for it.
My strike gallery (small chunk of it is shown in the 2nd pic) is available for all to view, and I’m constantly updating it as the strike continues.
If you’d like to support the strike but don’t know how, @alifeinthearts is a brilliant fund that keeps artists going through tough times.
