two summers in a row now I’ve put off editing the photos I took then until the fall. reflecting back to life in ohio.

midsummer shooting, wide awake and dreaming
I am grateful that with the help of my friends and our collective imagination and creativity, we can revisit the lives that used to be ours. it was a life spent rummaging through the dress-up bin and eating ice cream cones with rainbow sprinkles. growing up is a complicated mess of a thing; for an evening at least it didn't feel inevitable.
all the love and more for the women in these photographs. they inspire me, and through their laughter and honesty I stay present in every moment we share together <3
midnight moments. up too late, late in the year.
people are intimidated to be creative. when the purpose of being creative is simply to connect with friends, it takes the pressure to produce something outstanding out of the equation.
these photos were experimental and unserious. making them let us learn a little more about one another on a Friday night.
