About

I am a photographer who is drawn to quiet, reflective observations and my own way of seeing. I work primarily with 35mm and medium format analogue processes, which encourages me to take a slower, more intentional approach. My practice is rooted in materiality and process, using imagery to become present and transform my observations into reflections.

As my practice evolves through experimentation and reflection, it allows my photography to become my own way of understanding and relating to the world. Beyond my personal work I have been involved in several community-based photography projects.
