People reveal more to strangers than to friends.
I’ve built my practice around that idea.

My personal work documents these exchanges. Portraits of people who stopped, gave me their time and face, then disappeared back into their lives.

On commissions, I create space where people drop the versions of themselves they think they should be. That’s when something real shows up.
