I love photography so much I decided to major in it. I specialize in black and white photography, and while I don't have professional equipment, I feel that I make the most out of the resources I do have. I know there's always room for improvement and I seek to challenge myself with my art.

I love photographing the darker side of life, especially cemeteries. I am also interesting in documenting the lives of queer punks (and goths, and deathrockers, and everybody who is interesting...) because I feel that people in the LGBT community are seen as a cliche, a stereotype, and there are a lot of us out there who defy that. Another interest of mine is documenting the lives of transgender individuals, once again with a focus on those with so-called alternative lifestyles. I think that trans-people as a whole are sorely underrepresented and I seek to bring light to the community, allowing others to see them as above all, human beings and not Jerry Springer side show acts.
