Nothing can be compared to the feeling that I had when those standing pillars stood in front of me...Zhangjiajie National Park in China should be the top of every bucket list.?

This is Scooby - a cat I met on a photo walk through Richmond. His collar says he needs special medication, and he was very friendly. I thought such a special cat deserved a special portrait.

Easter has come and gone but the memories will warm our hearts forever. Here we are enjoying a stunning sunset at Birdrock Beach on the coast of Victoria. 

After a whole day of skating between spots, me and my mate Toby rolled up to the final spot. Toby had that this trick (back foot impossible) on his mind all day, he tried for about an hour, but didn’t manage to land it. For one of the final tries I decided to shoot a frame on my Olympus OM-30, and Kodak ultramax 400. 

The moment that she realised the baby was here to stay.

Even when traveling, you have several milestones. At this moment, we celebrated our opportunity to stay in Australia for another year. We had to do at least 3 months of farm work to qualify for a second year Visa.

On a trip to Big Bear Lake in Southern California, my friends and I stumbled across this very spot. It was a moment that had to be captured.

Love going on adventures with you, sister! #NationalSiblingsDay

One day at the dog park... digging marvelous holes and trying to give my hooman a sand and soil kiss ?❤️

I love taking photo with Kodak Portra 400, it’s so versatile, even when there’s a little light available.

Photo taken with a 100+ years old Petzval lens with a 6*6 Pentacon six TL medium format camera on Kodak Portra 800 film.

nothing about this last min adventure was well planned. but somehow I still got to this magical place at a magical hour. getting out there is half the battle!

It rains a lot here in the Pacific Northwest. So when the sun comes out, Ginger doesn’t mess around. She soaks up every bit of sun she can!

A couple weeks ago I had the distinct pleasure of capturing some images of my friend @senzz_!

Sena is an individual who exudes excellence, and I don't just mean in the usual sense of the word. As black people, our worth is often attached to how much we can succeed in life despite our disadvantages. What makes Sena excellent is the way he makes others feel. He's charismatic, kind, and multi-faceted. He's a theatre nerd, an incredible dancer, and he loves to hang. He's also a huge anime fan ?.

It's not a new thing for black photographers to capture black people, and that's why I want to go further. I want to capture black people who might have felt "othered" at some point in their lives. Maybe they didn't quite fit into spaces society said they "should" have. Maybe they have tastes that are popular now that weren't popular when they were growing up (see previous paragraph for anime ?).

I look forward to capturing more folks like this and potentially start a series ✨

Out for a spring ride with ma bestie

My family and I are traveling Australia in our caravan and this shot was taken at the Chinamans hat lookout in the Innes National park in South Australia!

Family time is always precious. Even though We’re getting older and we’ve chosen different paths, our bond has never wavered 

It being a Sunday, I decided to go for a photo walk at one of our local beaches. The beach was full of people and I noticed that they were two dogs that were running around with full of energy and were just being playful. I realized that they could turn out to be interesting subjects. I wanted to make a frame where only the two dogs were in it with no individuals. So I waited until the perfect moment. I didn't realize that I have made the frame that I was after, until I got the scans back. I am just happy with the fact, that I was able to freeze this moment. It outlines their character and how friendly they are. This photograph was made on Kodak portra 400 and the camera used was Pentax K1000.

Visiting Australia when I was 22! This was my first trip with my (now) husband and we’ve continued to travel over the last 14 years! 

To appreciate the view with your heart but not the camera

What a privilege it is to be the mother of boys.  Boys who will grow up respecting, loving and honoring women.  Treating them as equals.  Listening, truly listening, to what they have to say.  Taking the word “no” for exactly that— a no.  Valuing the women that they encounter as they go through life.

I promise I’m raising boys who you can trust your girls to be around and be respected by.

Me: I’m going to be so productive today.
Also me:

Last time at sunset cliffs in San Diego with my dog before moving out of state!

Leopold is afraid of heights but keeps climbing then can’t come down?

Perfect way to cool down in this Queensland heat

On the beaches of Zihuatanejo in Guerrero state there is an activity that consists of being lifted by a boat-driven parachute and allows you to see the beautiful views of Zihuatanejo. But before they go up, the workers have to lift the parachute in the air so that it is ready to make the trip. Once I took the picture of the moment one of them approached me and said "from above it looks better!" But I reject the invitation for fear of losing my camera several feet high.

The camera is an Olympus Infinity Zoom 105 and the film is Kodak Color Plus 200

I've always wanted to visit this interesting cave next to Timber Beach and I finally did.

Late February in San Diego, California we were blessed with a week of just the most absolute primetime weather. Mid 70s, crystal clear skies with a light breeze. Every sunset shoot was a dream that week. Tourmaline beach will always a have soft spot for my sunset shoots. This photo captures it all. Thank you Kodak Moments for the feature!

The best feeling you can have, catching a wave and ride it to the beach 

Meet Pippin.  She is a fantastic little dog who fills our lives with love and Kodak Moments.  Here she is running full speed back to me with a huge smile, because she knows I have tasty treats in my pocket.

A minute to reflect after a long day’s hike in the Coast Mountains of Canada. There’s nowhere else with lakes quite so turquoise from the glacial silt! Panorama Ridge, B.C.
