• Artist Statement

  I chose this picture as I Like capturing imagines with contrasts in color and light. I find them very aesthetically pleasing, and in California, with the skies always providing a bright blue backdrop, I have found that even simple everyday objects are great subjects. The way the sunlight falls on the metal pole in this image makes it stand out even more against the background.

• Creative Statement

  Since I was young, I loved looking at photos. The way that you could manage to capture a moment in time forever seemed to special to me. What I love about photography is how creative it allows you to be, from focusing on light and shadows in dark artsy photos to fun candids of those dear to you.
