I was born in Springfield, Missouri, and raised in suburban Memphis, TN where I studied illustration and photography.I earned my degree in photography in Memphis and have been working as a studio photographer for almost 20 years. In 2018, I began documenting my everyday life here in New York City. This became the project A Fragile Utopia. I reside in Brooklyn with my wife and young son.
About The Collection
The work presented here is primarily from a series titled A Fragile Utopia. I began this project as a way to get back on my feet, metaphorically speaking. After a couple of life-changing incidents occurred here on the street in New York. Though street photography is quite a departure from my studio background, it’s been enormously rewarding. Street photography and this project have really helped me piece my life back together. This series is both a diary and a meditation on joy.
