Unbowed to the Self
I don’t photograph people often, or at all, really.
My work usually lives in noticing the small worlds, textures, moments that you don't normally pay attention to in life. Animals you pass by and spaces that impact me.
On a trip to Vancouver, I had the opportunity to share space and create with and this felt different. Necessary.
This image isn’t about posing or perfection. It’s about strength.
About resilience. About the courage it takes to exist in your own body without apology. Especially when you’ve been hard on yourself, when the inner voice is louder than the truth.
I wanted to reflect her back to herself as I see her.
Grounded. Powerful. Sensual. Uncompromising. One of the most unique humans I've ever had the pleasure to know and to share a life together.
A body that has carried weight, judgment, and expectation and still refuses to bow.
This wasn’t about making something beautiful.
It was about honoring what already is.
Unbowed.
