Photography – New York - Brooklyn

I am a queer photographer based in Brooklyn. My work centers the LGBTQIA+ and Kink/BDSM communities with a primary focus in narratives about chosen family and platonic intimacy as a means of resistance. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay area and coming out in a city with such a vibrant queer community greatly influenced my interest in telling queer stories through images. I moved to New York seven years ago, and being a part of the queer community here has only amplified my drive to make art by, for, and about queer people. I am an artist-in-residence at Holyrad Studio in Brooklyn. :)
