I am 19, and am very much passionate about photography. I love how you can tell a story with no words, and that every photo is an experience, and a story behind a story. To me, a photograph has more meaning and depth than just a picture. It's a thought provoking image that makes you see what only you can see. I believe in making you see, not showing you what you "have" to see. Art is expression, experience, and interpretation.

I am trying to gain more diversity, and expand.

My biggest influences are Lillian Bassman, Man Ray, Patrick Demarchelier, Sylvia Plachy, Nick Danziger, and Gregory Crewdson
