After suffering from a sever brain injury at the age of 13 and spending a lot of time recovering at home, I discovered a point-and-shoot camera that belonged to my parents.

I began photographing my friends doing things I use to once be apart of. This was my way of feeling a sense of connection and a way of maintaining those friendships.

Fast forward a few years and I was photographing 18th birthday’s and house parties. This went on for 5 years. I must say, I really enjoyed this time of my life. I photographed these parties with no real intention or expectations. I wanted to document everything that took place around me, those in-between moments that slip by unnoticed.

It wasn’t until I saw down with my mentor and realised I was documenting life and how people connect and expressed themselves.

And to this day, that is something that I AM naturally intrigued BY and gravitate towards.
