Tethered
If a circus trainer ties a baby elephant to a peg when it was too small and weak to free itself; no matter how large and strong the elephant becomes, it will continue to believe it cannot free itself from its shackle. It is something my younger self can relate. I photographed this series many…

A Fashion Editorial for Chloe Magazine – Spring 2016
Behind this playful editorial, there were unprecedented problems we overcame by thinking on our feet and spending extra time on pre + post production. I photographed 4 different editorials during Tokyo Fashion Week SS 2016 in October 2015 . . . Some things did not happen according to plan, and some things became unavailable at…
