ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This was an image from the very first roll of film I ever shot. What I lacked in experience I hoped to make up for in intention, sensitivity, and vision, ideals which I maintain as my career blooms.

It is my preference to withhold the exact location context of my images, as part of my creative vision includes a look of timelessness, an absence of visual clues that might link the image to any particular time or place. This image is emblematic of a look that I've worked to achieve consistently in my work - street photography with the aesthetic of staged portraiture. I believe that within the visual world in which we reside, such subjects and conditions exist to create such a dynamic, and it is part of my job as a photographer to identify and capture the cinematic within in the ordinary and organic.
