Ever since I was a kid I have always been fascinated by the idea of relationships. I have always been a people watcher and I loved seeing how people interacted with each other. I have always had a camera. I used to have my parents buy me disposable cameras at a really young age and by the time I was 10, I had my very first camera. Digital wasn’t born yet so I would buy a ton of cheap film rolls and photograph everything from my siblings, my cat, to flowers, and my toys. I still have every single photo I made from my childhood in a box. I would also ask my mom to pull down all our photo albums frequently and just flip through the pages and pages of all our smiling faces. I had a love of photos from the very start. 

Now that I am a photographer I aim to take those photos that people pull out (whether in hand or on their phone) over and over and over again to just look at and to see their loved ones and just smile.
