I took a long break from posting, but I’m back.
Glad to share Joyce as my comeback post! She’s such a fun & genuine person to capture.
As I return to freelancing, I will share more of the images I’ve been taking.
I love photographing people, things and scenes that feel genuine, warm, and honest!
If you’re interested in working together, I’m available for product and lifestyle photography, as well as artist portraits and test shoots.
Thank you for being here — I’m looking forward to what’s next.

No one comes from themselves / 02 Rizaldy
I met Rizaldy(@rizaldy.jr) kind of unexpectedly through his partner, Crystal (@crystal.adrias), a very talented makeup artist I often collaborate with. Their love story is also really cute lol. I didn’t know what to expect from our conversation, but he was so open, even about the parts of himself he’s still trying to understand.
Rizaldy spoke about becoming kinder, getting sick and having to begin again, and choosing to become a painter at 36. We also talked about fear and the people who helped him survive. He chose painting for himself, but that choice was made possible by people who believed in him, cared for him when he was sick, and helped him keep going.
This interview was recorded as a conversation. His responses have been lightly edited.
Q. Who are you right now?
A. “I’m kinder than I once was.”
When asked who he is today, Rizaldy starts with how he has changed. He’s blunt about his younger self: egotistical, sexist, and emotionally closed off. He wanted to be accepted but struggled to hear other people. Becoming kinder is something he cares about and is still working on.
A lot of this came through conversations with Crystal, his partner. He used to get stuck on the idea of empathy. How could he honestly say he knew how someone felt if he had never been through what they had? To him, claiming to understand felt dishonest.
Their conversations helped him see that he could care about someone without fully understanding their experience. He could listen, take their feelings seriously, and be considerate without pretending he knew exactly what they were going through.
“It doesn’t matter if I understand or not. It doesn’t matter if I know how they feel or not.”
He still feels responsible for how he treats people, even when he can’t relate to what they’re feeling. That’s part of what he means by becoming kinder.
“And that’s who I think that I need to be.”
Q. How did you get here?
A. “It’s the fact that I chose myself.”
Rizaldy studied graphic design partly because he could see how to make a living from it. Photography followed, and he loved it, but much of that period was also tied to wanting acceptance and c

No one comes from themselves / 01 Amelie
Through portraits and conversations, I’m exploring the people, places, and experiences that shape us, and the contradictions we’re still figuring out.
Amelie was the first! A realist and a dreamer, she shared stories about growing up in Los Angeles, the values she carries from her family, and learning to welcome stillness.
#ektacolorpro400 @kodak
Huge thanks to @timryugo_kodak always for film
Q. So, who are you these days?
A. My name is Amelie. I am 23 and I currently work at an environmental justice advocacy and consulting firm. I am from the San Fernando Valley (Studio City to be exact). I am reserved, not shy, a realist and a dreamer. If I feel comfortable around you, I am quite the open book. I have become more bold as my years accumulate and find joy in the candid and the imaginative.
Q. How did you end up here? Were you always this kind of person, or did life make you more like this?
A. I grew up externally shy and internally confident. I’ve always been an overthinker and over-observer. Through friendships and life experiences, it became easier for me to come out of my shell and I no longer identified with shyness, but rather with reservation around the unfamiliar. I do feel as though this year specifically allowed me to disregard my early fears of perception and judgement. I’m not sure if it was a product of being out of school for almost a year, participating in casting calls (a true humiliation ritual), or simply entering the workplace, but I truly began to understand the sentiment that embarrassment is a
mindset.
Q. What do you have now that you know wasn’t entirely because of you?
A. Being born and raised in Los Angeles and having a family that supports me even now contribute to everything I have now. There is often a distinction between where you are born and where you are from, but Los Angeles being the answer to both is something truly special to me and a core part of my identity.
As a first-generation daughter, I try to be aware of all the help I’ve received from my parents and ancestors and how I’ve come to benefit from their labor and struggle. Still, I often take things for granted and recogni

I might be a lazy photographer but I love effortless things — the moments someone is just existing. I really find it endearing and enchanting. I like Joyce a lot to document because she @joycethethief makes me feel like documenting, even with slight direction. Her playful personality really shines through the process.
