Wendy
I got the glorious prize of working on the Caribbean Unit of Benh Zeitlin's second feature, "Wendy," to be released in February 2020. This will be the slow rollout of photos as they're published.
Sophisticated Giant
Documentation of Maxine Gordon's local book events for "Sophisticated Giant: The Life and Legacy of Dexter Gordon."
Deadly Animus
For me, any encounter with a dead animal - or the remains of one - is an occasion to photograph.
Visage of the Babysat
Kids, so often shot as they're treated - condescendingly - deserve their own collection. The title is a quiet nod to "Revenge of the Babysat," one of my favorite Calvin & Hobbes.
Pleasure Residents
I talked the Court13 major domo into hiring me to photograph the inaugural Always for Pleasure Resident Artists. Read More, ever treasuring their anonymity, opted to only have their work documented, found material flags spreading love around the city.
Part of Their World
I've worked as the swimming teacher at Country Day Creative Arts, a wild day camp in Metairie, Louisiana, for three years now. I've found I have a predilection for producing unexpected videos.
I'll Be Your Mirror
By posting up photobooths! I see you, and I'll show you the beauty you are. NB: My new web host doesn't support nudity, which may be the safest move for my subjects. But, let it be known, my camera and I welcome participants who are all levels of clad.
Camera About Town
I'm a freelancer; one tool in my eternal duel against unemployment is picking up gigs shooting events.
I'm Right Here, Where Are You?
Photographs from my book for Tom Roma's Photo III. My response to my boyfriend's suicide was playing with the intimate embrace of the inanimate, and the possibilities of documenting myself as a lover might.
Long Live Their Love
An ever-expanding collection of wedding photography, with some of the ceremonies being fake.
Best Accompanied by Bánh mì
A day is well spent adventuring in New Orleans East's derelict Six Flags.
Glimpses
Excerpts from my 2008 independent study with Tom Roma. Accused of being 'a social creature,' he pushed me to pursue portraiture.
Pinkham's Epistolarium
After years of sending daily postcards, in 2016 I decided to up my own ante and endeavored on a (intended) weekly fan mail project. I consider this my analogue antidote to the trolling epidemic.
write me!
My favorite fate for photographs is turning them into postcards; send your address and I promise you at least one. (wood me crafted by Z Behl, as a birthday present)
"...you can't get epistolary with someone who won't receive it with enthusiasm..."
One of my responses to quarantine in New York City, in my childhood home, alone, was to rally behind USPS, my favorite federal agency. I love postal workers so much, I've kept it up. I get explicit consent to shoot, and to share.
