In this moment my wife Xue and friend Kendra came by to visit me on site during a mural production in Wynwood, Miami. Kendra captured the sweet moment of us saying “bye, see you later at home” with a kiss.

Last week was a tough one. But I’m so grateful I got to spend some time with the fam bam. My God daughter turned 11 and we bought her a skateboard. She is so smart , respectful and fearless. I hope the gift gives her the drive to explore the world and herself. There is something inspirational about falling down and getting back up again.

Un soir sur la plage 

Celebrando mi cumpleaños 

I've never met a cat who loved to cuddle as much as this boy...and he loves his girl's cuddles the best!

When I was strolling highland park in the fall, I saw this couple sitting on a bench in total admiration for each other while enjoying the brisk air and warm sunset. One of my favorite songs instantly came to mind, “Someone To Watch Over Me” by Ella Fitzgerald. I wanted to capture that pure moment of love and embrace while it lasted. To her heart, he carried the key.

a lovely dinner with an old friend. 

Father & Son moment. I was giving my son a Haircut.

Summer adventure at its best in Tasmania! A great day spent getting to and climbing the freestanding pillar called ‘the Moai’ at the Tasman Peninsula?☀️  

Golden hour moments in Mom's garden ? 

Experiencing new places with you is my favorite. #HappyMothersDay

Grateful for this life. ?

Mommy kisses

Since COVID, my daughter is glued to my hip for everything. Working, cooking, working out, etc. She made a comment about wanting to ride the bike with me, so I gifted her a kids stationary bike for her birthday. She loves it and loves “riding with mommy!” It makes workouts more enjoyable for both of us, and she motivates me to workout now even when I don’t feel like it!

Everyone was just sitting around after the cake had been done.and my friend just starting snapping a bunch of photos and said something really funny at the same.time lol.

This me and my son :) 6 months old

Closing week film photo dump #kodakmoments #i❤️skiingwithfriends

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!

Baby Joe’s First Easter 2021 

It was beautiful day with most important person. Just went for a walk and we created this. 

Randonnée sur les îles du Frioul pendant les vacances d'hiver

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!

coach your kids and challenge them

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! 

Tesla the French Bulldog getting ready to hit the road!

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.
