Bobby Ruiz x Pendleton Woolen Mills
Delayed post since it launched in September but the excitement is still there! Sharing glimpse at Bobbyās story (full video link in bio) and his collab collection with Pendleton. This collab ties back into the beautiful and diverse community in SoCal involving low riding, skateboarding, tattooing, music and so much more.
Huge congrats to @bobbytribal and the team for this collab and thank you to everyone who helped make it happen.
Credit to @itsalexoh for being my DP interview day and working on the long form cut linked!
*also peep some bts including my first camcorder from when I was a kid in action, and @s1rsuave who cooked up some sick photography for the campaign
Iāve said it before and Iāll say it again and again and again. Representation matters. Representation in the OUTDOORS matters! So grateful to get to know Shanita and L on my recent shoot for @gossamergear . It was a lovely morning full of open and safe conversations on what ārepresentationā and feeling safe in outside spaces meant to us. We shared stories, we shared our favorite outdoor spots, we laughed, recreated together, and of course took some photos.
Hereās some of my favorite portraits I took.

BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL.

I took the portraits of these beautiful women with the intention of different project a little over a year ago. Iāve posted them before, but I kept finding myself wanting come back and try to present these women in an empowering way. Keep saying the names of those who have been victims of racial violence, but also keep celebrating the black women in your life.

š¶CHICAGOOOOš¶
October was a crazy month (honestly when are things not crazy) but got to kick it off with so many of my favorite people in Chicago. Feeling lucky that I get to blend so many of my friendships together.
Too many photos and sillies to share but got some semblance of a post together.
A portrait called āme after any mild inconvenienceā alongside a portrait described as āpoor victorian woman sat by firesideā
Life imitates art.
