everything changes — including pictures
Every feeling is fleeting. No moment is the same as another. That’s why I started taking pictures. Photography was my rebellion against impermanence, until I realized that photos change too. They may look the same, but as years pass, the way we perceive them evolves — the context, the meaning, the thoughts that pop into your head when we observe them. Sometimes, as our headspace shifts, we notice details that didn’t stand out to us initially. It’s almost like seeing it for the first time. That’s why I continue to take pictures.
In the Photocommunications program at St. Edward’s University in Austin, Texas, I spent my days in the dark — developing and printing images by hand. From 35mm to medium and large formats, I honed my expertise in film photography before sharpening my digital skills. Conceptually, I was drawn to documentary photography. I focused on creating authentic, environmental portraiture and explored how natural landscapes transform over time.
Nowadays, I continue to shoot digital and analog. Aside from the travel images and self portraiture I produce for Business Insider, my body of work includes music, street, nature photography.
