The images featured here are a handful from a growing body of work that are being edited into a photo book called Guilty Pleasures. The project aims to be playful and engage the viewer in the season and vernacular of winter, inside and outside. These images remedy the harshness of winter that is best survived with comfort and humor. Guilty Pleasures is indicative of my expansive art practice, which is fairly broad and primarily project-based, utilizing my background in photography. My projects come from my experiences that are then crafted by detailed photographic research that often negotiates emotional territory with a camera. I employ a wide range of visual languages through immersive photographic exploration, addressing the themes of loss, intimacy, comfort, anxiety, and masculinity.
