"Years are remembered and defined by the trips I’ve made. Those first encounters with new places & people are transformative & invigorating. I’m always looking to capture the soul of a place — not simply tracing where I've been, but distilling that feeling of being there in a single image."

"I love the process of collaboration, especially that early phase when you’re bouncing the thought bubbles around. When you get to the making part, if everyone is looking for the same thing visually, there’s this shared language that emerges, like unlocking the matrix, and when that happens, it makes for really strong and beautiful imagery."

"My father is a painter, and my grandmother was an avid photographer. She gifted me her Yashica SLR, which opened me up to a medium for creating that not only brings me great joy on a personal level but that, at its best, has immense potential to promote social, cultural, political, and environmental change."

"I love Hanya Yanagihara's novel A Little Life, particularly this moment, which describes watching the sun setting on a train carriage: 'He'd watch that kind light suffuse the car like syrup, watch it smudge furrows from foreheads, slick gray hairs into gold, gentle the aggressive shine from cheap fabrics into something lustrous and fine.' She articulates the kind of magic a certain light can bring to seemingly mundane subjects."

"I had an idyllic childhood growing up in Northern NSW. All the usual stuff— exploring the bush, climbing trees, jumping off the rope swing at the local waterhole. It happened quite organically as I started shooting, but it's clearer to me now that I've sought to recreate that sense of freedom and childlike wonder in my work."
