Music
People have been saying they like the guitar pick necklace that I wear around my neck everyday. It’s a maroon pick with a star emblem on one side, and an album cover on the other side; it carries a lot of meaning for me artistically. For one, it’s a legendary piece of band merch from the singer, my friend, Chloe Kohanski. She was the first musician I photographed, performing back in 2016 at a venue called The End in Nashville. That show was essentially the beginning of my overall body of work. So I wear the pick because it reminds me of music photography, one of my first creative outlets.
I love working with musicians—creating press photos, album covers, and editorials. I’ve been to a ton of shows over the years, but I’ve only been on one short tour with the Districts.
