Artist Statement
"Those who don't remember the past are doomed to repeat it" - George Santayana.
I like telling stories with my camera as a documentary photographer recording past and current history through my lens. The things I choose to record/ design are of a time not so long ago, in the lives of BIPOC whether on a plantation, "getting religion" on a Sunday morning, or just a day in the life. My parents grew up on plantations and I am the first generation not to. This history has influenced my outlook on life, and I want to capture these frames of time in the hope of leaving a legacy for future generations. I do this because our history is in danger of being erased. It’s hard to go forward when you have no perspective on where you came from.
