One Last Look

2025

Part of my 'Cemetery Polka' series created Feb 2025, inspired by Tom Waits songs and lyrics. The series combines moments from the last year, from Mardi Gras to my favorite cemetery to the Maurepas Swamp Reserve. The process includes a series of removals and layers to make several of my images into one entirely new image.

This one corresponds to the Tom Waits song 'One Last Look,' which he wrote and sang for David Letterman, the final show in 2015 when Letterman retired. It's also believed to be the last time Tom Waits performed in public. Multiple Sizes available upon request

I've been a full-time freelance journalist since 2007, covering travel stories for Conde Nast Traveler, Hemispheres, Travel & Leisure and National Geographic.

I'm self-taught, with the exception of a semester at New York's School of Visual Arts and one three-week intensive at the Photography School of Asia in Bangkok.

To-date, my words and images have appeared in more than 50 publications. I've lived in Charleston and Oxford (Mississippi, not London), New Zealand, Montana, and New York City.

For the last 15 years, I've also spent four months per year in Southeast Asia––primarily in Bangkok and Cambodia––working in both photography and fundraising/NGO work.

I'm a member of the Nola Photo Alliance, the Society of American Travel Writers, and am the author of two books on New Orleans. I finally became a full-time resident of the French Quarter in 2019.
