2024, berlin

I’m a photographer and videographer currently living in Dubai.

I grew up in the United States, first coming to Berlin in 2013 after completing studies in Film. I hoped to discover there a place where my interests in DJ’ing and fetish culture could mix freely. I didn’t find what I was hoping for, but after discovering photography, I loved having a real, constructive way to connect with people outside of the blurry dreamscape of Berlin’s nightlife.

Physical negatives and prints are my lasting memories of each of these moments, made concrete and timeless through the labor/intensive processes of hand-development. Whether they were brief or the result of a lasting friendship or relationship, I cherish these memories, while always refining my technical craft.

Beyond the alternative world of Berlin, I remain curious to meet new people, find common ground by working on projects together, as well as documenting unique lifestyles and communities, performances, and the beauty of nature, landscapes and cityscapes. All photos are analog 35mm or medium format, mostly shot on the Nikon F and Pentax 6x7 platforms.
