Music
My closest friends were all musicians when I got into photography in 2016. Hanging out with them felt isolating at first—I didn’t know how to play guitar—but then the camera became an instrument for me.
Concerts became my main stomping grounds as I began to photograph my friends playing live shows. Gradually, I got into doing portraiture for musicians, which led to album covers, magazine covers, and various other press.

I’ve always been an avid music listener; my experience of growing up in Nashville, Tennessee, the “music city,” lent itself to my inclination towards music. A large part of how I see and feel about the world is inspired by music; the sequencing of my photographs is inspired by music.
