Much of the work on this site is created through ongoing creative relationships with artists, friends, models, and other willing art subjects. Without collaborations, my art would not exist.
Whether it's for collages or photography, my process is often conversational: a sitting, an exchange, a return visit, or a shared idea that develops over time.
Prior experience is not required. Curiosity, clear communication, and mutual respect matter more than how much experience you have in front of the camera (or behind it). Every encounter with a collaborator begins with ensuring mutual comfort, setting expectations, and establishing boundaries.
