I don’t know how, but I’ve managed to be photographed by so many contemporary photography legends! This portrait from Alec Soth was taken in my greenhouse in the winter. He’s a damn master of his craft and I was seriously trying not to fan girl out!
Shot on an 8”x10” viewfinder.

From 2008….i had just figured out this bent mirror photo technique using a sheet of 4’x8’ mirrored acrylic. Starring three brilliant dancers from LA in the gay woods of Tennessee.

Just a woodland sprite, doing fairy things 😊
Including gardening and working on the land all day, harvesting and eating wild foods, and love making passionately every chance I get. I love spring!

In the early 00’s, I did all of the photos for the band Shiny Toy Guns…before and after they got big. They were always so down for whatever wild idea I had as a lil baby photographer still figuring out how a camera worked. A set made out of hubcaps or a sunrise photo in a cow pond with balloons 😂
