I disappeared into music right before I started
hiding behind a lens. Performing the Annie soundtrack for relatives is my
earliest performance memory while my childhood friend and I wrote hundreds of
love songs before we’d even talked to boys. I don’t know that I would have
survived the struggles of my life without songs. It wasn't just the melodies; the
stories became my stories. I had one for every situation I encountered, my
emotional wingman.
Photographing singer/songwriters have become a reignited
passion in recent years. It’s difficult for me to enjoy something with
strangers around. Concerts can either be overwhelming or immersing. My camera
is a cloak for vulnerability. Grateful am I that I can merge my two
loves.
Stirring are these creative’s
beautifully brave enough to write it down
then open up their insides
for a room of strangers.
