Where We Played (2022)


I grew up in the neighborhood where this playground is located. Throughout my adolescence I spent a lot of time at this park with my friends and family. This was the place where I ran and climbed as a child, and the place where I particpated in fruit wars and played frisbee with friends as a teenager. Soon I graduated and went off to college, and my family moved away from the neighborhood. Years later, I found myself in the area, and I decided to stop and visit the playground again. I thought about all the cherished memories that this place held while I sat on a bench in the shade. As I reminisced, I realized something.
After all this time, the only thing that had changed was me.

Dogs and their Owners (2022)

Some people say that one's pet reflects who they are as a person. I explored this idea by photographing different dogs with their owners in order to study their body language and facial expressions. I chose not to include the owner's face in each photo because I believe that their pets acted as a window into their soul. I wanted to focus on what each animal is conveying with their personality and what it tells us about the pair.
