The year was 2008 and the theme was Royalty..
~As the Black & White Print-cess, I chose high speed 35mm film to photograph Mardi Gras Day. With a crown made of negatives and my trusty Minolta x370 on my arm, I set out along the route. photographing my royal companions along the way. ~
The final touches (and snowflakes) of the Snow Queens transformation outside the Suburu carriage, just one eyelash to go.

At the root of all my work is my worldview. From the tiniest twig to the largest tree, the natural world is a source of inspiration for me, as well as the environment we create for ourselves. As the world becomes more modernized, I often find myself in nature connecting and recognizing humankind’s place in the world. With that thought in mind, I use the 19th century technique of lumen printing to create a true impression of our world. In my lens based photography and songwriting, I explore the world, reflecting on what is, what can be and the relationship between ourselves and nature. I love sharing with others whether through new works, exhibitions, performances/presentations, teaching, and random stories. I believe that when we form a connection, whether it lasts for a moment or a lifetime, the benefits are infinite.
