documenting life as it happens.
sometimes on film.
always while being.

finding gratitude and presence with each frame.

Food

Food is a powerful source of connection, nourishment, and joy. I love how quickly presence can be achieved when setting the table with someone you love.

Travel

Few things inspire a sense of adventure and mindfulness quite like travel, as it encourages us to embrace the unknown and be fully present in the moment.

Fashion

Fashion has been an invaluable tool in my search for autonomy and individuality, allowing me to explore and discover my true self, and providing a sense of grounding and stability along the way.
