I’ve been obsessed with photos for as long as I can remember. I would spend hours flipping through both grandmothers’ albums of memories and ask about every frame. More than just what was printed on paper, I wanted to know why they took that particular picture and how they felt about it.

For years, my camera was used to simply document my life. But at one point, I got the idea in my head that photos need to look a certain way or be of specific subjects and I lost the curiosity and ‘love of the game’ that initially attracted me to this artform.

My grandmothers took snapshots - photographs taken quickly that brought them back to a point in time which was meaningful. I started taking my own snapshots when my son was born. It finally clicked when I thought about those conversations I had not too long after I wore my first suit. I wanted to show my son an album one day, of what I saw in the world and why it was important enough to take a picture.

I believe there are moments worth capturing happening all the time. My hope is that when you look at my work, you are transported to one of them that was meaningful to you.
