Another shoot Rachel and I did together was during a day of unpredictable weather in Malibu. I was obsessing over the fantasy of the ocean, and though I did not plan it, the placement of these pictures indicates a forlorn nature of two girls exposing a beach of infinite, soft waves and foam and a developing storm. I see a world where we become our surrounding elements, and in the first few pictures, I feel I am being lured by the seduction of the waves to a new world where I release my body and become the water. Rachel demonstrates the vast mystery of the ocean while reflecting the combination of soft and sharp angles that can be found in the waves, shoreline, and horizon. To remedy all of this artsy talk, I suggest you just enjoy the scenery in these pictures :)
Sleeps With ButterfliesOn another collaborative photo shoot Rachel and I used the symmetry, colors, and beauty of butterflies as our inspiration. I wanted myself and the viewer to feel that they stumbled upon something intimate and private, yet ordinary and often overlooked. While many people appreciate the aesthetic of nature, it is very rare that they stop to think of all of the activity that may be too small to see. While an ant scurrying is very common, its task is its own and it is an individual amongst trillions. However, every small movement effects our entire ecological system and we often forget to appreciate the beauty of the most ordinary of landscapes...
... I also feel like I've come across a mythical creature, something that only lives in the existence of our imaginations...
