Lately, I’ve been spending time with the local bike community, documenting their rhythm, speed, and skill that define the South’s underground streets. Shot without a tripod and pushed to 1600, this roll carries the pulse of every frame.

I’ve been trying to tap more into an editorial style with my film photography, making sure every frame feels like it could live on a magazine cover.

Something out of my norm, but exactly what I needed. @dadwoman trusted me to capture their vision on film, and it turned into one of the most exciting shoots I’ve done in a while. The colors, the mood, the character, film just brought it to life. Made me want to dive deeper into the kind of work that challenges me to see differently.

New Orleans streets come alive with the energy of ATV and dirt bike riders, turning the city into a stage for grit, style, and freedom. For me, capturing these moments isn’t just about the adrenaline—it’s about telling their story. I want my photography to show these riders in a positive light, highlighting their passion, creativity, and the culture they represent. This is more than a movement; it’s a part of what makes New Orleans so raw and real.

I like to do street portraits as well as editorial photography. I meet new people and display their personality in every photograph. Just like in New York.

One thing the New York family shows me is to be you no matter what! Wear whatever you like, no matter what! If they show hate, they are just jealous they do not have the confidence you have to do it!
