Inside Lives

Initially inspired by the challenge of COVID isolation, I began photographing people inside their homes to tell stories. My volunteer models and I create vignettes that blur the boundary between reality and fantasy. I photograph from outside their homes at night while they enact a drama within. These private, often whimsical, stories portray imaginary extensions to their normal lives; flights of fancy or dream. I feel privileged to witness these moments and to share them with you.
