EXPANDING VISION
This year’s Women In Photography event was a reminder of why we do this. To gather together, be in community and empower one another. As women, we know this better than anyone. We all come up together.
When the world gets heavy, keep pushing forward. Since the beginning of time, women have proven that beauty and pain often go hand in hand. We are resilient and powerful.
Thank you to our amazing panelists for enlightening us, inspiring us and challenging us. As Lauren Chew said to her younger self, “Don’t change a thing. Believe in yourself.”

“I began my soccer journey at the age of 10, thanks to the guidance of a coach named Cherif Zein from Pasadena. While I wasn’t initially allowed to play, I was drawn to the game by watching my brother’s practices and games. My family’s strict rule, 'If I have to pay for you to play, you’re not playing,' became the spark that fueled my determination. It pushed me to work tirelessly, practicing for hours. From that moment forward, nothing could hold me back.” ~ Coach Mariela Gaitan
To hear the rest of the story and others, join us on December 13th for our launch event at @secretwalls from 6-10pm. Featuring a photo exhibition, live muralists, custom screen printing, special guests and local food vendors.

From the Polaroid Emulsion Lift Workshop at @duststudiosla last month! Such an incredible time with this group, you all killed it. From phone cases to canvas paintings, it’s always so fun to see what people bring to lift on.
It’s such a pleasure to teach and share this technique of film manipulation. A big thank you to everyone at Dust Studios LA for providing the perfect location and environment for creative exploration. More workshops coming in the future 🤍

It’s truly an honor to be invited to be a guest on @ktlaofftheclock to share about what @communitycollage1 is up to in LA. Excited to share about our goal of 40,000 Angelenos photographed for our murals around the county. Big thank you to one of our greatest partners @cityofsantamonica and amazing sponsors @duststudiosla In this episode we had the privilege to photograph @chrisktla @meganhenderson @henrydicarloktla5 @andyktla @ktlagingerchan5 shawnyhats @mayerhawthorne and all the amazing staff at KTLA along side of the kids and parents in the studio. It was a blast! In late July, I did my very first @tedx_official talk at @tedxfargo where I was introduced by my very dear friend @chefkatiechin who recommended me for the talk. Thank you so much Katie! We unveiled an amazing mural comprised of thousands of community members photographed over the month of April 2026 celebrating our similarities as human beings. So excited to share this vision with the communities in Los Angeles seeking joy, empathy and connectedness. Thank you for your trust. My TEDx talk is coming soon! Stay tuned for details!

So excited to announce my next workshop will be held at @duststudiosla. If you’ve ever wanted to learn the process of shooting Polaroid, lifting its emulsion, and film manipulation, this is your chance to do so in a professional studio environment!
Space is limited, and I’m offering a special Early Bird ticket price for the first few slots. Tickets in bio!
———————————————————————————
Explore the transformative potential of Polaroid photography with emulsion lifts - a tactile technique where a film image softens, separates from its original backing, and takes on a new form.
Participants will learn the chemistry and history behind the process, create their own one-of-a-kind image transfers, and gain the confidence to incorporate Polaroid manipulation into their creative practice.

What a night 🌹
We Dream in Color proved that art, community and joy are powerful forces for change. What an honor to host – a night rooted in courage, empathy, and community. The kind of love that shows up when no one’s getting paid, just moved by purpose.
Huge thank you to @miikebuccii for spending hours after long workdays setting up every piece with care, and to @partimecowboyy for assisting with the lighting that transformed the room. To @ashestoemberscollective for the vision , @daniellesjourney for the soundtrack 🎶, @cpcolectivo for the delicious tacos 🌮, and every single person who donated their time and heart to make it happen ❤️
Special shoutout to our volunteers Zoran, EJ, Nayeli and Nalani for spending hours helping us set up, to our beer sponsor @open__beer for keeping spirits high 🍻 and to @flo_photographs for capturing it all 📸
And most importantly, thank you to all the artists who generously donated their work to the cause.
As they say – it takes a village. Thank you for being a part of ours 🫶
Please continue to support the Palestinian families at @watermelonsisters24 and immigrant families here in LA by donating to @lasfotosproject.
May what we built together keep spreading like a wildfire – art, empathy, resistance.
