Rooms + Spaces Series

Our rooms and the spaces we frequent are oftentimes a beautiful reflection of who we are.

I started this series back in college with the idea of documenting my friends and artists in spaces where they felt free to be the most unfiltered version of themselves. Their creative studios, bedrooms, nature, it all was just a beautiful exploration.

I’m so excited to continue this series with a renewed focus on capturing artists in their creative spaces surrounded by all the things that influence their artistry.

I was honored to be able to capture my friend Joelle in her room over the summer. These are some of my favorite pictures.
