Hope
Cleveland, OH
……………
I had been thinking about this shoot for the last couple of years and finally made it happen. What better way to add to the beauty of the cherry blossom trees at Brookside Reservation than with the lovely Hope and some long flowing tule.
Should I do more of this next year?
Maybe make this a series?
Maybe with you?
Let me know in the comments.

T H R E A D S: Streetwear Showcase Spring 2026 was about more than style—it was about identity, expression, and pushing boundaries. Each look was designed to challenge the ordinary and redefine what streetwear can be. Textures, silhouettes, and attitude all collided on the runway. Thank you to everyone who showed up and made it into a reality!!! ⚠️🚦🚧

It’s been a week and I’m still in awe. What a night, what an experience. Grateful for every moment, every model, every supporter, and every hand that helped bring the vision to life. The energy, the love, the creativity… unmatched. This was more than a fashion show, it was a statement, a step forward, and a reminder of how far I’ve come. Forever thankful and already looking forward to what’s next. ✨

After the Silence, there was this.
a story told without asking for permission to be understood. Everything I’ve been holding in, finally given a body. every stitch, every step, every second meant something. grateful for the people who felt it with me. i poured parts of myself into this that words could never explain.
Special thank you to @eventsbychrissycavotta and @divebarcle for having me. Extended gratitude for all the models who make the vision happen.
