word

"word" is a series of portraits done of bay area poets, writers, lyricists, and mc's.

I was born and raised in the San Francisco bay area. I am a self-taught photographer, who dedicates most of my professional life to supporting individual artists, the development of their projects, and producing their work for stage. In 2009 I made a decision to make a serious investment in my personal artistic work, which includes concentrating on literary fiction, and photography. I work exclusively in medium film format, preferring to work with existing light, hand held. My style is documentary, although my favorite images exude mysterious and dreamlike qualities.
