• Artist Statement

  This photo is a beautiful representation of lighting up the dark. To tack this photo my model and I stode in complete darkness with fairy lights. The fairy light created the rings of light, but it took along time to expose the photo. Looking back on this photo I relize the great metaphor that this shows. It tells us that there is always light even in the darkest times. Even when it feels like you can’t see were you are going there is always light to lead the way.

• Creative Statement

  Creativity means exploring yourself and showing it in physical form. In photography it is preserving what the mind can't always remember.
