The rhythm lives in the snap of the card and the silence of the read.
A ritual where the air hangs thick with smoke and even thicker with history.
A ritual that shows up wherever we do. Rooftops, porches, kitchens, sidewalks, folding tables in the sun.
We are not just playing. We are signifying.
Every book caught is proof. Every hand dealt carries lineage.
At this table, ink and paper turn into kinship and memory.
Women. Men. Children. Generations gathered in the language of the game.
Laughter in the air. Eyes watching every move.
Smooth in the shuffle. Sharp in the play.
Unfiltered. Unbothered. Ours.
An ode to spades.
My offering to this year’s Black History Month.

Character is the only thing we build in this world that we take into the next.
Had the pleasure of getting My Father “Greg” in front of my lens.

There’s Clothes at Home” was the vision behind this project, created by the incredibly talented stylist @fitsbykekia who brought such a thoughtful concept to life. 🧥👚👗🧢👖👕
I was invited to help bring her idea into reality, and that’s something I truly love doing. As a creative, I have my own visions, but collaborating and helping someone else’s ideas come alive brings me an immense amount of joy.
The message behind this shoot really resonates with me. It’s about sustainability, using what you already have, and knowing how to shop intentionally so your pieces can evolve with you.
It’s a reminder that creativity doesn’t always mean starting from scratch. Sometimes it’s about finding the magic in what’s already yours.
